Abstract
In construction, worker safety is extremely important and the first line of defense against injuries is safety helmets. Unfortunately, their effectiveness can be compromised by improper usage. This study focuses on enhancing the existing safety helmets in the construction industry through a multifunctional helmet that has detection sensors aimed at minimizing accidents. The research also aimed at integrating eye protection and hearing protection into construction safety. The helmet’s effectiveness was evaluated using various methods including literature reviews and simulations The current challenges were addressed by the “Smart Detection Safety Helmet” which has features such as simplification of inspection tasks and provision of important evidence in case of accidents which is beneficial to all the involved persons in constructions.
