Seoul – May 24, 2023 –

Enterprise AI service provider People and Technology Co., Ltd. (Co-CEOs Hong Sung-pyo and Lim Jin-soon) has signed a contract to supply a Real-Time Locating Service (RTLS)-based Worker Monitoring System for Wonik QNC, a global leader in advanced composite material components. This system will be integrated into Wonik QNC’s comprehensive disaster prevention solution project, spearheaded by S-1 Corporation.

Enhancing Workplace Safety with Smart Monitoring

Wonik QNC specializes in semiconductor process equipment, where unforeseen safety accidents and technical defects can lead to significant risks. The disaster prevention solution aims to proactively mitigate these risks through the deployment of a smart disaster management system while establishing a systematic safety process.

In this project, People and Technology will leverage its RTLS expertise, utilizing beacon tags and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanners to build a robust real-time worker monitoring system.

The RTLS-based Worker Monitoring System enables real-time tracking of:

• Access Information: Details of entry and exit points.
• Occupancy Status: The number of workers remaining in specific zones.
• Unauthorized Access History: Logs of unauthorized entry into restricted areas.

Worker location and identification data collected through BLE tags are transmitted to the RTLS server, where the information is processed and visualized for real-time monitoring in the disaster prevention control room. The system allows operators to track the number of individuals present in buildings and floors, entry history for specific zones, and overall building access data.

Configurable Monitoring for Enhanced Safety

Operators can use the management interface to define authorized and restricted areas, as well as set limits for the duration workers are allowed to remain in certain zones. Alarms are triggered when the allowed time is exceeded, ensuring timely interventions.

Key Benefits of the RTLS System

A representative from People and Technology explained:
“The RTLS-based Worker Monitoring System uses next-generation Bluetooth beacon technology to visualize worker location data for real-time monitoring. This not only prevents potential safety accidents during operations but also enables swift response and mitigation in case of emergencies.”

This system is designed to safeguard workers in high-risk industrial environments and represents a step forward in integrating smart safety solutions into industrial operations. People and Technology continues to lead in providing cutting-edge RTLS solutions, driving advancements in workplace safety and operational efficiency.
