Smart Helmets: Action Cameras Deployed in Almaty’s Power Grids
Kazakhstan enhances safety in energy sectors with smart helmets and action cameras in Almaty’s power grids, aiming to prevent workplace injuries.
The Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Kazakhstan continues its efforts to enhance safety across energy infrastructure facilities, aiming to prevent workplace injuries.
JSC 'Alatau Zhariq Company' has started using action cameras to improve safety in electrical networks. In 2024, the first action cameras were introduced as part of a pilot project, and currently, their total number has reached 268 units.
Smart helmets have been issued to all field teams of the electrical networks districts (END) in Almaty and the Almaty region, with ongoing distribution to workshop teams.
These cameras enable real-time monitoring of safety compliance. END managers, dispatchers, and occupational safety specialists can quickly identify risks and demand work stoppages when necessary. Regular video analysis helps in spotting violations, after which explanatory discussions and additional briefings are conducted with the workers.
