[0002] In the daily operation of a construction site, risk management and the investigation of potential safety hazards are important links to ensure the safety of workers and the smooth progress of the project. The existing investigation of potential risks and hazards at the construction site mainly relies on manual inspections. This mode requires safety supervisors to conduct on-site inspections of the construction site regularly or irregularly to identify potential risk points and safety hazards. However, manual risk identification often requires staff to have sufficient work experience, and human negligence is difficult to avoid. For example, staff often miss some risk points due to fatigue, inattention, etc., making the risk assessment of the target area inaccurate, which will cause great loopholes in the construction safety of the construction site. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a remote monitoring system that can evaluate the risk investigation work of staff. Summary of the Invention

Brief Description of the Drawings

[0029] Figure 1 This is a logic block diagram of an embodiment of an Internet of Things-based intelligent construction site remote monitoring system of the present invention. Specific implementation mode

[0030] The following is a further detailed description through specific implementation modes:

[0031] The specific implementation process is as follows:

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] As shown in the appendix of Embodiment 1 Figure 1 An Internet of Things-based intelligent construction site remote monitoring system includes a data collection module, a risk point analysis module, a video analysis module, an evaluation accuracy analysis module, and a warning module. The system automatically collects staff information and monitoring video data through the data collection module, and uses the risk point analysis module to analyze historical fault data to evaluate the accident risk index of each area. At the same time, the video analysis module can automatically record the inspection time of the staff in each area, and the evaluation accuracy analysis module analyzes the evaluation accuracy of the staff for the target area by combining the staff information, area risk index, and inspection time. The warning module determines whether to issue a warning for unqualified inspections according to the set accuracy threshold. Such a system not only improves the real-time performance and accuracy of monitoring, but also can take corrective measures in time when the evaluation accuracy of the staff is insufficient, improving the efficiency and effect of safety management.

[0034] Specifically, the data collection module includes a personnel information collection module and a video monitoring module. The personnel information collection module is used to collect staff information including working years. The video monitoring module uses high-definition cameras to monitor the working area in real time, ensuring that all key equipment and construction areas are covered, and collecting monitoring video data of the working area through high-definition cameras.

[0035] The risk point analysis module is used to analyze the accident risk index R of each area according to historical fault data:

[0036]

[0037] In the formula, n is the number of historical fault types in the target area, i is the ordinal number in the historical fault type, and λ i is the frequency (per year) of a certain type of fault occurring in the target area, and S i is the matching factor of the impact caused by this type of fault. The accident risk index of each area (such as earth excavation area, formwork production area, tower crane, etc.) is analyzed through the system. The comparison table of faults and impact matching factors is as follows:

[0038] Table 1 Comparison table of faults and impact matching factors

[0039] Accident consequences Impact matching factor Minor equipment damage 0.3 Moderate equipment damage 1 Severe equipment damage 2 Project delay (minor delay) 0.3 Project delay (medium delay) 1 Project delay (major delay) 3 Minor injury to personnel 1 Serious injury to personnel 2 Fatal injury to personnel 3

[0040] The video analysis module is used to analyze the inspection time t of the staff in each area according to the surveillance video data. Specifically, the video analysis module includes a preprocessing module, an identification module, and an inspection record module.

[0041] The preprocessing module is used to perform preprocessing operations on the surveillance video data. In this embodiment, the surveillance video image is first subjected to preprocessing operations such as noise reduction and contrast enhancement to improve the image quality. Then, image segmentation technology is applied to separate different objects and the background in the image for subsequent feature extraction.

[0042] The identification module includes an identity identification module and a behavior identification module. The identity identification module is used to identify the identity information of personnel according to the preprocessed video image. When a staff member enters the working area, a real-time image of the staff member is captured by a high-definition camera. When the target person is identified as a non-staff member, the warning module issues a non-staff member warning message.

[0043] The behavior identification module is used to input the preprocessed video image into the risk inspection behavior model to identify the risk inspection behavior of the target person. The establishment process of the risk inspection behavior model includes the steps:

[0044] First, extract the risk inspection behavior features from the preprocessed video image. Determine the key features that can represent the risk inspection behavior, such as gestures, postures, and tools used, etc. These features should be able to distinguish different risk inspection behaviors and be consistent under different environments and conditions. After determining the features, apply computer vision techniques, such as edge detection, contour extraction, and image segmentation, to identify and extract the selected features.

[0045] Secondly, segment the extracted risk inspection behavior features into independent action units according to consecutive video frames. Each unit represents a basic behavior action. Combine these action units into an action sequence in chronological order, and label the action sequence to indicate the start and end points of each sequence, as well as the key steps in the middle. Each sequence represents a complete behavior process.

[0046] Finally, use a recurrent neural network to train and identify the action sequence. Train the RNN through the labeled action sequence dataset, adjust the network parameters to minimize the error, and then adopt the backpropagation algorithm and gradient descent optimization method to continuously update the network weights until the model converges to obtain the risk inspection behavior model.

[0047] The inspection record module is used to record the area where the person is located and the inspection time t during which the risk inspection behavior in that area continues after identifying the risk inspection behavior of the person.

[0048] The evaluation accuracy analysis module is used to analyze the evaluation accuracy A of the staff for the target area according to the staff information, the regional risk index, and the corresponding investigation time:

[0049]

[0050] In the formula, t0 is the standard investigation time, t is the actual investigation time, T is the user's working years, and T max is the maximum working years, k is the growth rate of the investigation proficiency, P is the historical evaluation accuracy of the staff. In this embodiment, the minimum working years of the user is five years. The user's working years and the historical evaluation accuracy of the staff are obtained from the enterprise database. Since the longer the user's working years, the richer the experience, and the stronger the judgment of environmental hazards, this solution substitutes the user's own experience and its historical evaluation accuracy to judge the accuracy of its current evaluation, which can make the judgment result more real and accurate. In addition, in this embodiment, the growth rate k of the investigation proficiency is obtained according to the staff's working years, investigation speed, and evaluation accuracy in the historical records. R est is the accident risk level of the target area, and the accident risk level R est is divided according to the accident risk index R. When R = 0, the accident risk level is risk-free, and R est = 1; when R < 1, the accident risk level is low risk, and R est = 1.25; when 1 ≤ R < 2, the accident risk level is medium risk, and R est = 1.5; when R > 2, the accident risk level is high risk, and R est = 2. Controlling the standard investigation time in combination with the actual risk level of the target area can make the analysis result more in line with the actual situation and make the judgment result more accurate.

[0051] The warning module is provided with an accuracy threshold k. When the evaluation accuracy A does not reach the evaluation accuracy threshold k, the warning module issues a warning that the investigation is not up to standard, enabling the staff to take corrective measures in time when the evaluation accuracy is insufficient, greatly improving the level of construction site safety management and ensuring the safety of workers and the smooth progress of the project..

[0052] In addition, this embodiment further includes an environmental data acquisition module and an information display module. The environmental data acquisition module includes a number of temperature sensors, humidity sensors, smoke sensors, and flame sensors distributed in various areas of the construction site. The environmental data acquisition module collects temperature data, humidity data, and smoke concentration data of each area through the temperature sensors, humidity sensors, and smoke sensors, and detects whether there is open fire in the target area through the flame sensor. When an open fire is detected in the target area, the data acquisition module sends a fire alarm signal to the warning module, and the warning module issues a fire alarm for prompt after receiving the fire alarm signal. As the construction project progresses, by continuously arranging temperature sensors, humidity sensors, smoke sensors, and flame sensors in key areas of the construction site, the system can monitor the environmental conditions of the construction site in real time, including temperature, humidity, smoke concentration, and open fire situation. In addition, in this embodiment, there is also a smart safety helmet equipped with sensors and a video monitoring module for mobile environmental data acquisition and monitoring. This comprehensive monitoring helps to promptly detect potential environmental risks, such as fire hazards, and other environmental factors that may affect the health and safety of workers.

[0053] The information display module includes a video display module, an information marking module, and a prompt module. The video display module is used to display the monitoring videos of each area. The information marking module is used to mark the collected environmental data on the monitoring video corresponding to the target area. The prompt module is used to flash and prompt the monitoring videos corresponding to the areas where non-compliance is detected and open fire appears. The information display module in this embodiment provides an intuitive and easy-to-understand user interface through the video display module, the information marking module, and the prompt module. The environmental data (such as temperature, humidity, smoke concentration) marked on the monitoring video and the flashing prompt of non-compliant or dangerous areas not only help the staff quickly locate the problems, but also enhance the visual impact of safety issues, thereby improving the safety awareness of construction site personnel and the efficiency of risk management. This instant feedback mechanism enables safety supervisors and construction site managers to quickly identify problem areas, make corresponding decisions and take actions, encourages the implementation of timely corrective and preventive measures, and reduces the occurrence of safety accidents.

[0054] Embodiment Two

[0055] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is only that the second embodiment further includes a troubleshooting record module, which is implemented through an APP installed on a mobile phone. The troubleshooting record module includes a positioning module, a troubleshooting confirmation module, and a prompt module. The positioning module is used to obtain the positioning information of the staff. The troubleshooting confirmation module is used to determine the working area where the staff is located according to the positioning information of the staff, obtain the historical fault types in this area according to the working area, and generate a corresponding risk troubleshooting record form, and confirm the risk troubleshooting of the current area by recording the troubleshooting results and time in the risk record item form. The review module is used to send a non-compliance prompt to the staff in the corresponding area of the risk record item form according to the non-compliance warning issued by the warning module, reminding the staff to conduct a risk troubleshooting confirmation again to avoid potential risks missed due to incomplete initial troubleshooting.
