Missing hard hat
Detect people without a hard hat in zones where head protection is mandatory.
A missing hard hat caught before an injury happens
The "No hard hat" scenario detects a person without a hard hat in a zone where head protection is mandatory. A hard hat is one of the most basic items of personal protective equipment in production halls, warehouses and on construction sites, and its absence is a direct risk of head injury.
Automatic detection lets you react the moment someone enters the zone — before an incident — 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 uncovered head appears in the watched zone.
Configurable zones
You define exactly where a hard hat is required — detection runs only where it matters.
Around-the-clock monitoring
Detection runs continuously, 24/7, with no fatigue or breaks — every shift is covered.
How no-hard-hat detection works
Industrial cameras watch the zone while vision servers run the SAM3 detection model with the prompt "person without helmet" 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 the entrance to a production area the camera spots a worker with no hard hat and immediately triggers a light signal and a supervisor notification, while the event lands in the safety report.
The system recognises the "no helmet" 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 zone, ready for analysis in safety reports.
Ready for safety reports
Every detection lands in a report with time and zone — ready for safety-trend analysis.

Frequently asked questions
- The presence of a person without a hard hat in the watched zone. The system recognises the "no helmet" state, not the person's identity.
- No. Detection is about a state and an object — there is no biometric identification or face recognition.
- Yes. Detection areas are configurable, so the system reacts only where head protection is mandatory.
- 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 zone; 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. Every detection is logged with time and zone and is available in reports and on the dashboard.
- Yes. Integration gateways link events to AndonCloud and PLC controllers — for example a light signal or a notification.
- Book a demo — we will pick the detection zones and show how the camera image becomes an alert and a decision in AndonCloud.
The "Missing hard hat" scenario detects a person without a hard hat in a zone that requires head protection. A hard hat is one of the most basic items of personal protective equipment in production halls, warehouses and on construction sites, and its absence is a direct risk of head injury. Automatic detection lets you react before an incident happens.
In the AndonCloud computer-vision pipeline, industrial cameras watch the zone while vision servers run the SAM3 detection model with the prompt "person without helmet" 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 the entrance to a production area the camera spots a worker with no hard hat and immediately triggers a light signal and a notification for the supervisor. The system recognises the "no helmet" state, not the identity of the person — it performs no biometric identification or face recognition.
