Scaffolding safety compliance detection using computer vision

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a hardware processor, perform operations comprising:

• receiving one or more images of a worksite that includes a scaffold;
• identifying, by computer vision processing, a presence of a person on the scaffold;
• identifying, by image analysis processing, one or more items of personal protective equipment in the one or more images;
• determining, by image analysis processing, a position of the one or more items of personal protective equipment relative to the person in the one or more images;
• and
• verifying, using safety standards compliance information, that the person is using the one or more items of personal protective equipment in compliance with personal protective equipment standards based on the position of the one or more items of personal protective equipment.

A system comprising:

• an image capture device to capture images of a worksite;
• a hardware processor to execute instructions;
• and
• a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing safety standards compliance information and storing instructions, that when executed by the hardware processor, perform operations comprising:
• receiving, by a hardware processor, one or more images of a worksite that includes a scaffold;
• identifying, by the hardware processor operating computer vision processing, a presence of a person on the scaffold;
• identifying, by the hardware processor operating image analysis processing, one or more items of personal protective equipment in the one or more images;
• determining, by the hardware processor operating image analysis processing, a position of the one or more items of personal protective equipment relative to the person in the one or more images;
• and
• verifying, by the hardware processor using safety standards compliance information, that the person is using the one or more items of personal protective equipment in compliance with personal protective equipment standards based on the position of the one or more items of personal protective equipment.
