A Wireless On-The-Go Industrial Safety System for Workers Safety in
Hazardous Environments
Abstract
In any industry workers safety is a major concern to ensure the smooth running of the industry. In
industries like mining having a fixed system for environment monitoring and safety surveillance is
not possible because of the nature of the industry itself, where in the location of work keeps
changing almost on a daily basis.
This project proposes a novel solution for such requirements based on multi hop networking
communications. In this project a portable battery operated low cost device will be constructed that
could be integrated into any of the various safety items worn by miners like the helmets for
example. This portable device has a short range communication module like a RF transceiver. A GPS
receiver, sensors and transducers that can monitor the presence of hazardous gases or chemical in
the proximity of the worker. For emergency signaling and acknowledgement using a beeper and a
button is also included.
Once such a device is provided to each of the personnel, the RF transceivers in all of their devices
can be used to establish a dynamic multi hop network that can carry information about the
personnel safety and working conditions to a central monitoring station.
When the monitoring station receives the information about the presence of a poisonous gas in a
certain region, it dispatches a querying message to the concerned person asking for an
acknowledgement to ascertain if they are okay. The querying message from the monitoring station
triggers the beeper and the worker has to press the button to confirm if he is okay. When the worker
presses the button, the acknowledgement message is transmitted back to the monitoring station. In
case the person does not acknowledge the querying message then the monitoring station can
initiate an emergency response procedure to help the person(s).

Existing System
1. In the existing system a device is fixed in common, so that it gives a general emergency
signal in that mining area
2. It creates confusion in determining the person who has got injured.

Proposed System
1. In proposed system separate device is provided to each of the personnel and they can be
tracked during emergency
2. The beeper is provided with the device for alerting the person about hazardous gases
3. Acknowledgement is provided by the worker if he is safe.
