Indoor staff monitoring system using tracking beacons

Controlling staff movement is one of the most pressing challenges for many companies. One way to control the site is to install tracking beacons. Every worker is given a smart watch with pre-installed special software. The location of each employee is constantly recorded and entered into the cloud platform. The cloud platform provides access to all data, analytics and personnel monitoring tools.

System’s main features

• Determining the location (indoor) of each employee online and saving data on the server (cloud);
• Controlling the employee movement speed (a long stay without movement results in a signal to the senior officer);
• Controlling presence in restricted areas (presence results in a signal to the senior officer);
• Controlling the time spent in areas with limited time spent (canteen, smoking room) (if the time is exceeded – a signal is given to the manager);
• Controlling the employee absence in the room (if the time of absence is exceeded, a signal is given to the manager);
• Device removal control (upon event a signal is given to the manager);
• Controlling device duplication, for example, several devices hung on one employee (upon event a signal is given to the manager);
• Generating reports on an employee, a group of employees, a shift, a brigade;
• Sending personal or mass messages to wearable devices;
• Heat map of the facility, determining places where employees are most often found.

The software and hardware system providing recognition of employee actions with an accurate spatial reference to the company’s infrastructure and subsequent analysis of production efficiency and personnel safety

• Recognizes personnel actions based on received data;
• Associates recognized actions to precise locations and times;
• Transfers the processing result from the device to the upper-level system;
• Transmits alarms and alerts;
• Accepts top-level system commands such as software updates.

System implementation main advantages

• Increasing personal motivation and efficiency of each employee;
• Increasing industrial safety index and reducing human factor influence;
• Reduced downtime;
• Increasing company’s OEE;
• Improving the efficiency of solving problems.
