The study focuses on developing a Smart Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) system for
tracking and emergency monitoring in hazardous environments. The system integrates
RFID technology with a server-based system to provide monitoring, tracking, and
emergency response capabilities. RFID tags embedded in PPE communicate with
strategically placed readers to monitor worker location, health status, and environmental
conditions. Data collected from RFID tags is transmitted to a central server for processing
and analysis. In restricted floors, the system triggers alerts to designated personnel,
minimizing accident risk. An accident monitoring solution uses an accelerometer to detect
changes in speed in fall accidents. Foreman and administrator receive direct
communication to identify accidents on site. The project was assessed by 50 respondents,
including 44 laborers and 6 technical experts, with a grand mean score of 3.61. The
researchers used the CIT evaluation approach and concluded that Vercel Web was a great
choice for tracking and monitoring smart PPE, local materials and technical expert advice
were helpful, and the project is useful and safe due to its features.
