Abstract

A system for promoting the safety of workers comprises a digital imaging device positioned to capture one or more images of a predetermined viewing area. Further, the system comprises an image processor operatively associated with the digital imaging device. The image processor is configured to determine whether a person is within the predetermined viewing area of the digital imaging device. The image processor is further configured to determine whether the person is not wearing required personal protection equipment. Additionally, the image processor is configured to generate a message or control signal in response to determining the person is within the predetermined viewing area of the digital imaging device and determining the person is not wearing the required personal protection equipment.
