The Workplace Efficiency and Safety technology centre aims to research, develop, and deploy cutting-edge technologies to increase workplace efficiency and safety. This is achieved through automating manual processes using diverse technologies, ranging from AI, computer vision, 3D spatial computing, robotics, and sensors.
The centre aims to deliver seamless automated solutions for work and safety supervision, as well as progress tracking, to reduce manpower requirements for such tasks. This is to address the increasing labour shortage issue encountered in industries such as building and construction. It provides automated monitoring and situational awareness of the workplace; uniquely addresses both efficiency and safety concerns simultaneously.
