Abstract |
|
| |
Many accidents happen during sewer pipes maintenance. One of the causes is that workers continue to work within abnormal conditions during sewer pipes maintenance. If we can detect those conditions early, we can prevent these accidents by taking an appropriate countermeasure. Physical movements in abnormal conditions are different from those movements in normal conditions. Physical movements of workers can be gathered using acceleration sensors. This paper proposes a method to detect these abnormal conditions by analyzing the physical movements during sewer pipes maintenance. An experiment was conducted to evaluate this method. As a result, we have been able to create thresholds which bring 100% recall with acceptable precision. |
