Preexisting camera systems can now contribute to a radical reduction in workplace risk. Learn how in this 60 second video clip.
Here’s the transcript:
I think general warehousing manufacturing most have some sort of camera system. It may be for security, it may be pre-existing with a building when we rented it maybe. It might be for inventory control, or finding lost or damaged inventory. So because these cameras already exist and they’re already recording, our technology doesn’t have any invasion into the facility. So instead of two weeks later, we just rewrite over that old security video, instead of doing that, the client will send that to us, we’ll process that data, and then we’re able to give them these large amounts of data points. And then we have a team of safety engineers and risk managers that can turn that into usable recommendations. And then as we continue with these reports, we can benchmark the client and we can show just how much our, the steps that we’ve made from comp science to help intervene with the client, just how big of an impact we’re really making.
