Initial Research Pathway

Description about Real-Time PPE Detection with Computer Vision and AI (V3SmartTech)


(Photo taken V3SmartTech website)

1) I have started by getting a quick information from ChatGPT on any technology in civil engineering field that uses AI to make the job of workers in the construction field effective or safe. I have simply input "Provide me some examples of available technology that uses AI in civil engineering field" in ChatGPT for a possible list of available AI technologies. 

2) I was drawn to one of the AI applications which was provided by ChatGPT known as 'Real-Time PPE Detection with Computer Vision and AI' .

3) I prompted ChatGPT further on the technology's capabilities and limitations and its functions so that I can gain a quick sense of technology's effectiveness as to whether this is a good topic for me to touch on for thesis. I have simply input "Provide me with the technology's capability and limitations as well as functions". Note that I have only used ChatGPT to get quick information.

4) I explored the Internet for companies which provide the same technology so that I can gain a clearer information about the technology. One of the company websites which I have discovered is V3SmartTech website and the company readily provides the technology in Singapore. This website provided me with detailed functions, features and benefits of the technology. Other websites such as Visionify which almost provides me with same information.

5) I surfed the internet to find more sources to describe my idea better for summary draft. This includes looking up various articles and websites.

    Huh? That's it? Jomel, I'm expecting a bit more detail for the research pathway.

    Which research platforms did you use? What sort of sources/articles were you
    looking for and what did you find? To what extent did you use gAI? What prompts
    did you create to solicit info from any gAI sources? How did these sources help you
    in the research process?

Descriptive Reflection - Introductory Email

Greetings Mr Blackstone, This email serves as a short introduction about me and my goals for Critical Thinking and Communicating module. I took up civil engineering programme at Singapore Polytechnic in 2018 as I was encouraged by my father to give the programme a try. Taking up civil engineering has provided me with valuable insights and a sense of purpose as I gradually have come to understand the importance of proper designs in various infrastructures. My interest in civil engineering stems from my strengths in math and physics and as well as interest in analyzing and finding solutions to challenges. One of my communication strengths is the ability to speak clearly and confidently one-to-one. I used to serve as a staff administrator during National Service and I handled matters concerning National Service personnel’s allowances and leave issues. Being a staff administrator during National Service made me realise that I can deliver clear messages and instructions one-to-one. However,

Summary Reader Response Draft 2

The article “Transforming Workplace Safety: Harnessing AI for Real-Time PPE Monitoring” explores the impact of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) detection by AI and several advantages of the use of AI to deal with non-compliance of not wearing PPE (Rebecca, L., n.d). The system, empowered with AI-enabled image and video analysis, can identify various personal protective equipment, promptly sending alerts for individuals who do not have proper gear (Lambert, R. 2023). Based on one of the few companies that supply this system, the system offers remote construction site monitoring and provides centralized oversight to managers through a user-friendly platform and by sending real-time safety alerts for PPE non-compliance. It also provides workplace recordings to obtain video data on workplace safety and potential hazards for identifying and preventing accidents (V3 Smart Technologies, 2024). The system simply works by obtaining red-green-blue (RGB) images from CCTV, which are transmitted
