Yeosu Gwangyang Port Authority, Proactive Establishment of Intelligent Safety Accident Prevention System View original image


[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Yeosu Gwangyang Port Authority (President Cha Min-sik, hereinafter referred to as the Authority) announced on the 14th that it has proactively established an AI-based intelligent port workplace safety accident prevention system to respond to the government's 4th Industrial Revolution activation policy and contribute to accident-free operations within the port area.


The AI algorithm-based intelligent port workplace safety accident prevention system (AIG: Artificial Intelligence Guard) distinguishes temperature data measured non-contactly when port workers enter the dock using facial recognition technology, stores it anonymously, and recognizes temperature changes due to alcohol consumption and the subject's behavior patterns (such as staggering, excessively slow walking speed). It then sends caution alerts to the post guards and supports the safe return of port workers and crew members using port safety support vehicles.


Additionally, by continuously learning the results of system operation through deep learning technology, the system gradually enables more accurate distinction and detection of facial recognition, which is expected to prevent safety accidents among port workplace entrants (including crew members).



President Cha Min-sik of the Authority stated, “To prevent safety accidents among port workers, our Authority has implemented various measures to improve the port working environment, resulting in no fatal accidents for several years and a significant reduction in safety accidents among port workers. However, accidents such as falls caused by alcohol consumption among crew members, who are beyond our direct reach, have occasionally occurred.” He added, “With the introduction of this AI-based safety accident prevention system, we will faithfully fulfill the public institution's fundamental mission to protect the lives of the people by preventing alcohol-related fatal accidents among port workers (including crew members) entering the docks under our jurisdiction.”
