Blocked Emergency Exit Detection

Blocked Emergency Exit Detection uses AI-powered video analytics to automatically identify objects obstructing designated emergency exits and escape routes. By continuously analysing CCTV footage, the system can detect potential blockages and generate real-time alerts, allowing personnel to clear the obstruction before an emergency occurs.

Designed for factories, warehouses and industrial facilities, the solution helps maintain clear emergency evacuation routes and supports proactive workplace safety monitoring.

Key Features

• AI-Powered Exit Monitoring — Automatically monitors designated emergency exit areas through video analytics.
• Obstruction Detection — Detects visible objects such as pallets, cartons, equipment or materials blocking emergency exits.
• Virtual Monitoring Zone — Defines specific areas around emergency exits that must remain clear.
• Real-Time Monitoring — Continuously monitors configured emergency exit zones.
• Instant Alert Notification — Generates alerts when an obstruction is detected.
• 24/7 Automated Monitoring — Reduces reliance on manual CCTV observation and periodic inspections.
• Event Recording & Review — Records detected blockage events for safety review and investigation.
• Existing CCTV Integration* — Can work with compatible existing CCTV infrastructure depending on system configuration.

*Detection performance depends on camera positioning, visibility, lighting, obstruction size and system configuration.

Benefits

• Keep Emergency Exits Clear — Helps prevent pallets, cartons and other objects from obstructing evacuation routes.
• Faster Corrective Action — Real-time alerts allow personnel to remove detected obstructions quickly.
• Improve Emergency Preparedness — Supports safer and more accessible evacuation routes.
• Improve Workplace Safety — Provides continuous automated monitoring of critical emergency exit areas.
• Reduce Manual Inspections — Supplements routine safety inspections with continuous CCTV monitoring.
• Support Safety Compliance — Helps facilities maintain clear designated emergency exits and escape routes.
• Support Safety Audits & Investigation — Recorded events can provide useful evidence for internal safety reviews.
