As the demand for construction work steadily rises, the annual increase in both the frequency and severity of heatwaves necessitates more consideration of the well-being and rights of our vulnerable construction workforce. Identifying mild heatstroke poses a significant challenge due to its symptom overlap with common illnesses, yet its consequences are profoundly severe. To mitigate these risks effectively, real-time monitoring and timely warnings are imperative to prevent heatstroke from advancing to an irreversible stage.

 The helmet combining with app introduces an advanced system that intelligently monitors and assesses warnings. It connects workers, colleagues, and supervisors, facilitating proactive management of heat-related risks. Notably, this product system not only enhances the health and well-being of construction workers but also contributes to standardizing construction companies in the long term, safeguarding the rights and interests of worker groups to a considerable extent.
