Problem
I tecnici che lavorano in ambienti ad alto rischio come il rivelatore di particelle ATLAS del CERN sono esposti a radiazioni, gas tossici, shock elettrici, etc.
Il tempo a disposizione per ogni loro intervento è limitato: deve terminare al raggiungimento
del livello massimo consentito di esposizione alle radiazioni e di sopportazione dello stress.
Solution
Il sistema di sicurezza personale PSS, è un kit a batteria di soli 300 grammi montabile su un elmetto di sicurezza.
Dotato di una telecamera, raccoglie i dati da un dosimetro che registra il livello di radiazioni assorbite e le trasmette alla centrale remota; ha un cavo per auricolari e un pulsante per collegarsi in videochiamata con l’assistenza.
The assistant, thanks to the video shot by the camera, can see, monitor, record the technician's activity, guide and help him. Through the dosimeter he can check vital critical parameters such as the level of radiation absorption and, when the maximum limit is reached, alert the operator.
A battery-powered Wi-Fi access point provides a stable connection even in harsh conditions.
