According to the ASI press service, the complex, which includes monitoring systems based on geolocation, video analytics and electronic work permit, was named "AntiPandemic". The personnel monitoring system based on the geolocation allows to monitor the observance of social distance by employees with an accuracy of 50 cm. All information about violations of the established order automatically goes to the operator.

“Our solution can be successfully applied at any facility with a large number of workers, where it is important to automatically control the safety of production,” noted Vizitek General Director Rustam Milanov. "The management of industrial enterprises will be able to quickly respond to any emergency situations that arise in production, thereby saving lives and ensuring the continuity of the production process."

According to Milanov, the technology will help to track the entire history of movements and social contacts of sick employees, which will allow timely preventive measures and minimize the spread of infection at the enterprise.

The Anti-Pandemic video analytics system contains a number of detectors that automatically detect targets and potentially dangerous situations. She monitors the observance of social distance, wearing respirators and masks, and also records the temperature of employees.

In addition, the system of electronic work permits, in addition to the main functionality of minimizing personal contacts and remote work, allows you to automatically add to the work plan actions that are significant during the spread of viruses and infections, for example, to decontaminate overalls before a shift.

“Our solution can connect to the base of medical examinations, in particular, to systems of the“digital passport”class, and, if necessary, restrict the employee's access to work - for example, if he has not passed the examination. It is also possible to prepare premises and equipment for operation, in particular, provide for mandatory disinfection,”added Rustam Milanov.

The Agency for Strategic Initiatives supports Vizitek in matters of interaction with large enterprises, and an industrial security standard is also being developed. The timing of the introduction of the new technology has not yet been announced.
