MULTI-ACCESS EDGE COMPUTING FOR REMOTE LOCATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240330451 titled 'MULTI-ACCESS EDGE COMPUTING FOR REMOTE LOCATIONS
The present disclosure describes a system for multi-access edge computing, specifically for construction sites. The system includes sensor devices that collect construction site sensor data and transmit it to a local computing system. This data is then combined with user feedback data and sent to an edge computing system, which processes the information and transmits it to a cloud computing system. The cloud computing system analyzes the data and executes a site risk prediction application to predict hazards within the construction site.
- Sensor devices collect construction site sensor data
- Data is combined with user feedback data
- Edge computing system processes the combined data
- Cloud computing system further analyzes the data
- Site risk prediction application predicts hazards within the construction site
Potential Applications: - Enhancing safety measures at construction sites - Improving efficiency in construction project management - Real-time monitoring of construction site conditions
Problems Solved: - Predicting hazards in construction sites - Integrating sensor data with user feedback for better risk assessment
Benefits: - Increased safety for construction workers - Enhanced decision-making for project managers - Improved overall efficiency in construction processes
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Construction Site Safety with Multi-Access Edge Computing" This technology can be used by construction companies, safety consultants, and project managers to improve safety and efficiency on construction sites. It has the potential to reduce accidents, save costs, and streamline project management processes.
Questions about Multi-Access Edge Computing: 1. How does multi-access edge computing improve safety on construction sites? - Multi-access edge computing allows for real-time data processing and analysis, enabling quick hazard prediction and prevention measures to be implemented.
2. What are the key benefits of integrating sensor data with user feedback in construction site management? - By combining sensor data with user feedback, construction site managers can gain a comprehensive understanding of site conditions and potential risks, leading to more informed decision-making and improved safety measures.
Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provide multi-access edge computing systems and methods. one such system comprises a plurality of sensor devices that are configured to collect construction site sensor data and transmit the sensor data to a local computing system that is configured to combine the sensor data with user feedback data and transmit the combined data to an edge computing system. the edge computing system is configured to process the combined data and transmit the combined data to a cloud computing system, where the cloud computing system that is configured to process the transmitted data from the edge computing system. the edge computing system or the cloud computing system is configured to execute a site risk prediction application and predict a hazard within a construction site based on the collected construction site sensor data and generate an output signal to equipment operating at the construction site.
