AURA ENTERPRISE · CONSTRUCTION EDITION
Aura Enterprise — Construction Edition
Real-time, on-premise worker safety for high-risk construction sites. Footage never leaves the site.
The same cognitive core behind Aura Enterprise, tuned for the realities of an active construction site.
Observed, but not understood
A modern site generates an enormous amount of observable data — dozens of cameras, access logs, permits to work, weather feeds. Almost none of it is used in real time. CCTV is reviewed only after an incident has already happened.
The cost shows up in four places
Safety incidents
Near-misses and hazards go unseen until they become injuries — by which point footage is only useful for the investigation.
Material losses
Theft, misplacement, and weather damage to materials accumulate quietly with no real-time signal.
Operational waste
Idle crews, blocked zones, and uncoordinated activity erode productivity without anyone watching live.
Regulatory exposure
PPE and access violations are only discovered during audits or after enforcement, not as they occur.
The site is observed but not understood.
Intelligence that lives on the site
Aura runs on a site-local server the operator owns and reuses the RTSP cameras already installed. Cheap detection runs on every frame; expensive analysis fires only when signals justify it. A cognitive agent reasons over structured events — never raw video.
Site-local server
Runs on hardware the operator owns, inside the site network. No vendor cloud in the loop.
Reuses existing cameras
Connects to the RTSP cameras already on-site — no rip-and-replace, no per-worker devices.
Tiered analysis
Lightweight detection runs on every frame; expensive analysis (pose, action classification) fires only when a signal justifies it.
Reasoning on events only
A cognitive agent reasons over structured events (object class, zone, timestamp). The reasoning layer never touches raw video.
The on-site pipeline
Footage never leaves the site. Only structured events flow downstream.
Exactly what is built, and what isn't
Every capability carries a status tag. Where something is not built yet, the tag says so plainly. No capability below should be read as a deployed, proven result.
Built — operational in development
- Worker presence tracking (who / where / how long)
- Activity-level anomaly detection
- Crowd-density anomalies
- Alert routing (Telegram / dashboard)
- Event capture with provenance
- Audit-ready event logs
In development — Q3–Q4 2026
- PPE compliance (helmet + high-vis vest)
- Fall-geometry detection
- Subcontractor crew-size verification
- Shift compliance log
- Weather-risk alerts for materials
- Video-clip capture on incident
Roadmap — after first pilots
- Heavy-equipment proximity detection
- Harness PPE detection
- Role-based alert playbooks
- MOHRE / Civil Defense integration
- Fleet dashboard
- Arabic UI + report generation
Future — with expansion
- Heat-stress monitoring (thermal cameras)
- Fire response protocol
- Evacuation path optimisation
- ADNOC / ISO 45001 / GCC regulatory mapping
Safety without surveillance of the person
No facial recognition
Identity is inferred from role markers — helmet and vest colour, zone, subcontractor manifest — not biometrics.
No personal conversation monitoring
Rest areas and canteens are excluded. The system watches for hazards, not people's private moments.
Site-wide briefing at deployment
Everyone on-site is informed about what the system does and does not do before it goes live.
Optional aggregate-only mode
For pilots, the system can run in a mode that reports only aggregate patterns, with no per-individual tracking.
How a shift could play out
- 06:00
Overnight summary: no perimeter anomalies, material zones intact.
- 07:00
PPE flag at the main entry — a worker enters without a high-vis vest; supervisor notified.
- 09:30
Weather alert: rising winds; loose materials in the open zone flagged for securing.
- 11:00
Crew-count mismatch in Zone B against the subcontractor manifest; supervisor checks.
- 12:00
Midday-break compliance confirmed across active zones.
- 17:30
Automated shift report generated with the day's events and provenance.
Aura Enterprise vs the alternatives
| Traditional CCTV | Cloud video-analytics | Vision wearables | Aura Enterprise | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Where data lives | On a local DVR | Vendor cloud | Vendor cloud / app | On-site, never leaves |
| Response latency | After the fact | Seconds–minutes | Seconds | Target < 60 sec |
| Reasoning engine | None | Rule / model triggers | Limited | Cognitive agent |
| PPE coverage | None | Partial | Wearable-dependent | In development |
| Per-worker hardware | No | No | Yes | No |
| Raw media retained | Yes | Yes | Sometimes | No — events only |
| Existing-camera integration | N/A | Varies | No | Yes — reuses RTSP |
How a pilot would start
30-day pilot
A single camera in a priority zone, validating detection and alert flow against your real environment.
Full-site deployment
Rolled out across the site's cameras over four to eight weeks.
Multi-site rollout
Expansion across additional sites after first pilots prove out.
We're looking for design partners and early pilots for 2026.
If you operate a high-risk construction site where footage can't leave the premises, we'd like to hear about your environment.
