Objective

This project aims to monitor visitors' movements, entries into buildings, warehouses, storage areas and logistic zones, and enhance security measures in advance of potential emergencies.


Expected Outputs

  • Real-time tracking of visitors' locations and HSE status on a digital map.
  • Instant detection of visitors' exact locations in case of disaster, fire, or accident.
  • Immediate security notifications when visitors enter restricted areas such as R&D, warehouses, or laboratories.
  • Web-based visitor registration system with real-time access and reporting.


Key Challenges

  • Large facility grounds
  • Multi-story buildings
  • Metal-intensive production areas
  • Online visitor registration form


Solution

The solution involves a web-based .NET Core application including a visitor registration form and facility map, enabling real-time tracking of visitors. RTLS technology operates on various frequencies for wide coverage and metal-intensive areas. An emergency alert system with visual and auditory signals has also been deployed.


Gains

  • Real-time visitor tracking with alerts when outside designated areas.
  • Web-based application for entry/exit records with automatic backup.
  • Emergency button on RF tags generates automatic alarm messages.
  • Security team receives real-time details for rapid intervention.
