Zero Accident Journey Project aims to prevent accidents that cause great material and moral losses with the use of innovative technologies and artificial intelligence.
In the Project, Intenseye's artificial intelligence algorithm was integrated into the cameras of facilities in the TİSK ecosystem, and real-time "unsafe action notifications" were used to prevent possible occupational accidents. With integration of the software platform with the existing cameras in the workplaces, without the need for additional hardware, the risks of occupational accidents in the production area can be determined beforehand. Worker health and occupational accident risks are determined in advance for each business, criteria are defined in the system. Intenseye, an artificial intelligence supported video analysis solution, analyzes 24/7 facility camera images and gives an alarm in case of a possible risk, thus preventing possible work accidents. The Zero Accident Journey Project, which uses the latest developments in computer vision, allows OHS teams to monitor their facilities 24/7, receive real-time violation notifications and run quick response procedures. On the other hand, intenseye makes analyzes anonymously by connecting to the existing cameras in the facilities and warns the OHS experts in the facility before any event occurs, through the real-time notifications via e-mail and SMS. In the project, which is a first for Turkey, TİSK undertook the cost of the system for 3 years in the first 200 member workplaces.
