ABSTRACT: Construction sites are complex and
bustling work environments where safety is a top
priority. The use of cutting-edge technologies such
as YOLOv5 and Faster R-CNN has emerged as a
crucial solution for ensuring workers' well-being
through safety helmet detection. These advanced
computer vision models leverage deep learning
techniques to accurately identify and
individuals wearing safety helmets or hard hats in
real-time, revolutionizing safety measures
construction sites. By employing YOLOv5 or Faster
R-CNN, these models excel in their ability to detect
safety helmets. They analyze video or image frames
and precisely locate the position and boundaries of
safety helmets worn by workers. This detection
capability allows for immediate identification of
individuals who are complying with
regulations by wearing their helmets and those who
are not. Furthermore, the models offer real-time
tracking functionality, enabling continuous
monitoring of workers wearing safety helmets as
they move around the construction site. This feature
ensures that safety protocols are upheld throughout
the entire work process. By tracking workers,
supervisors and safety officers can quickly identify
instances where individuals remove their helmets or
fail to wear them in designated areas, allowing for
prompt intervention to address potential safety risks.
One of the primary objectives of using YOLOv5 or
Faster R-CNN for safety helmet detection is to
monitor compliance. The models provide
comprehensive evaluation of workers' adherence to
safety regulations by analyzing the detection and
tracking results. Through this analysis, supervisors
and safety officers can assess the overall compliance
level at the construction site and take appropriate
actions to enforce safety protocols. These actions
may include issuing warnings, providing additional
track training, or implementing stricter safety measures to
mitigate potential hazards.

safety Due to the need to build various frameworks because
of urbanization, the issue of wellbeing on building
locales is getting a more noteworthy degree of public
consideration than at any other time. Several fiascos
can be stayed away from with the assistance of
personal protective equipment (PPE) [1]. A security
cap is one of the main bits of PPE that laborers ought
to wear to shield themselves from falling items [2, 3].
It is legally necessary wherever in the world to wear
one. The wearing of a wellbeing cap, then again, is
commonly not recorded because of inconvenience
