Missing safety glasses
Detect operators without safety glasses during welding, grinding and similar work.
Missing safety glasses caught before eyesight is harmed
The "Missing safety glasses" scenario detects an operator using a tool without safety glasses, for example while welding or grinding. Flying debris, sparks and dust are a direct threat to the eyes, so eye protection is mandatory for many tasks.
Automatic detection lets you stop a hazardous activity the moment it begins — before an eye injury occurs — instead of reconstructing the event from footage afterwards.
Reaction at the moment it happens
A detection raises an alert and andon signal the instant an operator starts working with a tool without safety glasses.
Tied to tool work
The scenario covers an operator while welding, grinding and similar work — exactly where the risk to the eyes is real.
Around-the-clock monitoring
Detection runs continuously, 24/7, with no fatigue or breaks — every shift is covered.
How missing-safety-glasses detection works
Industrial cameras watch the workstation while vision servers run the SAM3 detection model with the prompt "person operating tool without safety glasses" at the edge. Every match becomes an event that integration gateways forward to AndonCloud and machine PLCs.
The event turns into an alert, an andon signal, a dashboard entry and a line in a report — with no footage sent to the cloud and no strain on your infrastructure.
Detection at the edge
The model runs locally on the vision server — low latency and no footage streamed off-site.
Andon & PLC integration
A detected event can trigger a light signal, a supervisor notification or an action on a machine controller.
No footage in the cloud
Analysis happens at the edge — only events leave the site, not the video stream.
Example use and privacy
At a grinding station the camera spots an operator with no safety glasses and immediately triggers a warning and a supervisor notification, while the event lands in the safety report.
The system recognises the "no glasses" state, not the identity of the person — it performs no biometric identification or face recognition.
No personal identification
Detection is about a state and an object, not personal data — no face recognition.
A full event trail
Every detection is logged with time and workstation, ready for analysis in safety reports.
Ready for safety reports
Every detection lands in a report with time and place — ready for safety-trend analysis.

Frequently asked questions
- An operator using a tool without safety glasses, for example while welding or grinding. The system recognises the "no glasses" state, not the person's identity.
- No. Detection is about a state and an object — there is no biometric identification or face recognition.
- Wherever eye protection is mandatory — welding, grinding and similar work where sparks, debris and dust threaten the eyes.
- The event triggers an alert, an andon signal, a dashboard entry and a report line; it can also trigger an action on a machine controller.
- Yes. The model runs at the edge on the vision server, so the reaction happens as the event occurs.
- Standard industrial IP cameras watching the workstation; the image is analysed locally by the vision server.
- No. Analysis happens at the edge — only events leave the site, not the video stream.
- Yes. Integration gateways link events to AndonCloud and PLC controllers — for example a light signal or a notification.
The "Missing safety glasses" scenario detects an operator using a tool without safety glasses, for example while welding or grinding. Flying debris, sparks and dust are a direct threat to eyesight, so eye protection is mandatory for many tasks. Automatic detection helps stop a hazardous activity before an injury occurs.
In the AndonCloud computer-vision pipeline, industrial cameras watch the workstation while vision servers run the SAM3 detection model with the prompt "person operating tool without safety glasses" at the edge. Every match becomes an event that integration gateways forward to AndonCloud and machine PLCs — as an alert, an andon signal, a dashboard entry and a line in a report.
For example, at a grinding station the camera spots an operator with no glasses and triggers a warning and a notification for the supervisor. The system recognises the "no glasses" state, not the identity of the person — it performs no biometric identification or face recognition.
