LG Uplus Corp. and Hyundai Elevator Co. distributed safety devices that use Internet of Things (IoT) technology to elevator installation workers.
The new technology analyses whether employees correctly tie the chin straps on their safety hats or wear safety rings when constructing elevators in high areas, and it avoids falls by alerting employees if any of their equipment has been improperly fastened.
Jeon Seung-hoon, head of smart infrastructure at LG Uplus, said they will expand the application of the smart safety management system starting from elevator installation sites to other sites with a risk of fall accidents, aimed at contributing to preventing serious disaster accidents.
The two companies jointly developed smart safety management systems, such as IoT sensor safety hats, rings, belts, and exclusive applications for elevator installers and control platforms.
