L2M–L6-Smart Helmet: An AI-Assistant for Preventing Accidents on Construction Sites

This project is about bringing a smart safety helmet to market that helps protect construction workers. The helmet uses built-in cameras and artificial intelligence to detect dangers around the worker and provide real-time alerts to prevent accidents. During this project, we will develop a clear plan to introduce the product, identify the right customers, and define pricing and partnerships. The expected benefit is that the innovation will be translated into a market-ready solution, enabling early adoption, business growth, and improved worker safety.
