Integrating Augmented Reality and Edge Computing for Enhanced Hazard Detection and Safety Monitoring

Abstract

The integration of augmented reality and hazard detection is poised to change industrial safety. Employees receive visual alerts through augmented reality overlays that give immediate and clear information about safety threats. Supervisors can quickly handle safety issues with augmented reality applications that combine digital reporting and hazard detection. Training methods are also being transformed by augmented reality, allowing employees to practice through real-world simulations in interactive environments. Challenges like low connectivity or high latency can be tackled with edge computing techniques, where data is processed and stored close to the user. The main topics of this study include augmented reality, hazard detection, edge computing, safety monitoring, and devices like the Microsoft HoloLens. These concepts are key to understanding the future of safety in the industry.
