Mumbai-based Anand Systems Engineering has recently introduced an AI-powered Human Detection System designed to improve industrial safety by identifying workers standing or moving beneath suspended crane loads. The technology aims to reduce the risk of crane-related accidents through real-time monitoring, automated warnings and crane control functions.The system uses two industrial cameras mounted on an Electric Overhead Travelling (EOT) crane to monitor the floor beneath the load. An AI model trained on overhead images identifies people and tracks the crane hook, creating two circular danger zones that move with the suspended load as the crane travels.When a worker enters a designated danger zone, the system activates a warning light and hooter to alert personnel. It can also slow or stop crane operations through a relay contact, with a response time of less than one second.The technology operates through a processor installed within the crane-mounted control panel, allowing it to function without an internet connection. A monitoring dashboard provides live camera feeds, alert histories and information on the time individuals spend within restricted zones.The system is already operational on a crane at a steel plant in Pune, where its detection capabilities were refined using site-specific camera images during commissioning.Every lift should end with everyone going home, said Rohit Dewani of Anand Systems Engineering. He highlighted the need for improved visibility beneath suspended loads, particularly in areas that crane operators cannot continuously monitor.Designed for industrial applications, the system is compatible with single- and double-girder EOT cranes, gantry cranes and semi-gantry cranes. It supports hook heights ranging from 5 m to 20 m and incorporates two 4 MP industrial PoE cameras with IP66 protection. A third camera can be added for wider operating areas.The system also features outputs for warning lights, hooters and crane-stop functions, along with a lockable IP54 control panel operating on a 230 V AC power supply.Anand Systems Engineering offers site surveys and on-site evaluations to assess system performance on customers' cranes before commissioning.Established in Mumbai in 2007, the company manufactures EOT crane components, including DSL busbars, radio remote controls, thruster brakes, limit switches and master controllers. Its expansion into AI-based safety systems reflects a growing focus on intelligent monitoring solutions for industrial lifting operations.
