AI-Based Health and Safety Training in in Offshore Construction (SafeSite)

SafeSite是一个开创性的研究项目，旨在彻底改变海上建筑行业的健康和安全培训。该项目解决了该行业提高安全标准的迫切需要，该行业在2021/22年度报告了565,000起事故和123人死亡。传统的培训方法已被证明是无效的，需要创新的解决方案。SafeSite是一款基于人工智能的虚拟现实(VR)健康和安全培训工具，旨在补充Core Systems Software Ltd的核心建筑项目管理环境。Core Systems和V-Lab是两家领先的数字创新公司，此次合作汇集了VR技术和建筑项目管理方面的专业知识。这两家公司都已被确认为2023年TeesTech Awards著名创新奖的入围企业。通过利用尖端人工智能技术，SafeSite将为离岸工人提供个性化和互动式的健康和安全培训，与健康和安全执行部提供的指导方针和全球风能组织培训标准保持一致。该项目的最终目标是提高培训的有效性和可及性，导致一个更安全、更高效的离岸行业。SafeSite包含几个创新功能。基于人工智能的自动模型创建过程将3D扫描的OBJ文件转换为建筑信息建模(BIM)模型，从而提高了精度和效率。此外，基于人工智能的培训场景生成器创建定制的健康和安全培训视频、说明和虚拟练习，这些视频、说明和虚拟练习是为特定离岸地点的数字双胞胎量身定做的。在身临其境的VR培训环境中，由聊天机器人驱动的培训教练的人工智能生成的语音和代表培训参与者的可定制化身增强了真实感和互动性。Core Systems和V-Lab的合作旨在改变海上建筑行业的安全培训方法。通过利用人工智能和虚拟现实技术，SafeSite不仅提高了工人的安全，还提高了企业生产率。该项目的影响不仅限于培训，因为它符合英国政府到2030年将海上风电装机容量提高到40GW的目标，为该国的可再生能源目标做出贡献。SafeSite在满足近海建筑业提高安全标准的迫切需求方面有着巨大的希望。通过成功开发和实施这一创新的培训工具，我们预计将对海外工人的福祉和行业的整体成功产生重大积极影响。SafeSite准备在健康和安全培训方面设定新的标准，展示人工智能和VR技术在创造更安全的工作环境方面的潜力。

SafeSite is a groundbreaking research project aiming to revolutionise health and safety training in the offshore construction industry. The project addresses the pressing need for improved safety standards in an industry that reported 565,000 accidents and 123 fatalities in 2021/22\. Traditional training methods have proven ineffective, necessitating innovative solutions. SafeSite is an AI-based health and safety training tool in virtual reality (VR), designed to complement Core Systems Software Ltd's CORE construction project management environment. This collaboration between Core Systems and V-LAB, two leading digital innovation companies, brings together expertise in VR technology and construction project management. Both companies have already been recognised as a finalist for the prestigious Innovation Award at the TeesTech Awards 2023\. By harnessing cutting-edge AI technology, SafeSite will introduce personalised and interactive health and safety training for offshore workers, aligning with the guidelines provided by the Health and Safety Executive and the Global Wind Organisation training standards. The project's ultimate goal is to enhance training effectiveness and accessibility, leading to a safer and more efficient offshore industry.SafeSite incorporates several innovative features. An AI-based automated model creation process converts 3D scanned OBJ files into Building Information Modelling (BIM) models, improving accuracy and efficiency. Additionally, an AI-based training scenario generator creates customised health and safety training videos, instructions, and virtual exercises tailored to digital twins of specific offshore sites. Realism and interactivity are enhanced with an AI-generated voice of a training instructor powered by a chatbot and customisable avatars representing training participants, all within the immersive VR training environment. The collaborative efforts of Core Systems and V-LAB aim to transform safety training methods in the offshore construction industry. By leveraging AI and VR technologies, SafeSite not only improves worker safety but also increases business productivity. The project's impact extends beyond training, as it aligns with the UK government's goal of increasing offshore wind capacity to 40GW by 2030, contributing to the country's renewable energy objectives. SafeSite holds great promise in addressing the urgent need for improved safety standards in the offshore construction industry. By successfully developing and implementing this innovative training tool, we anticipate a significant positive impact on the well-being of offshore workers and the overall success of the industry. SafeSite is poised to set new standards in health and safety training, demonstrating the potential of AI and VR technologies in creating safer work environments.
