Sense Human
Smart Helmet builds intelligent hard hats that continuously monitor a worker’s surroundings and detect proximity to hazards, especially in the blind spot behind them. The device delivers real-time vibration alerts to keep workers aware, connected, and safe on site. By integrating sensor technology directly into personal protective equipment, it helps supervisors and contractors reduce accident risk and improve overall site safety compliance.

Problem
Workers on construction and industrial sites face significant risks from proximity to moving equipment and other hazards, particularly in blind spots that are difficult to monitor visually. Traditional safety protocols rely on visual awareness and training, which are insufficient to prevent accidents caused by sudden or unexpected proximity to dangerous machinery or obstacles.
Solution
Smart Helmet manufactures intelligent hard hats that continuously monitor a worker’s surroundings and detect proximity to hazards, especially in the blind spot behind them. The device delivers real-time vibration alerts to keep workers aware, connected, and safe on site. By integrating sensor technology directly into personal protective equipment, it helps supervisors and contractors reduce accident risk and improve overall site safety compliance. The system is designed to be worn as a standard hard hat, requiring no additional equipment or user intervention, and provides immediate tactile feedback when a hazard is detected.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hardworking workers, supervisors, and contractors in construction and industrial environments who need to reduce accident risk and improve site safety compliance.
Features
- Real-time proximity detection to hazards, with a focus on the blind spot behind the worker
- Vibration-based alert system that provides immediate, non-visual feedback to the wearer
- Sensor technology integrated directly into the hard hat, eliminating the need for separate devices
- Designed for continuous monitoring throughout the work shift, enhancing situational awareness
- Supports safety compliance efforts for supervisors and contractors by reducing accident risk
