  • Abstract
    A portal provided with antennae could log Personal protective equipment (PPE) items and generate a warning signal when items are missing. Detection of PPE items before activating machines and technical equipment is also possible. Up to now such systems can detect the sufficiency of PPE but they can not distinguish between sheer presence and correct application.
