Senturian Products Deployed

 

In March 2020, BASF adopted senturian's deep learning artificial intelligence system to identify oil spills, fire, smoke and minor explosions. (optimized to identify and alert within 3 seconds.) BASF staff can now identify and address problems and leakages immediately, before it becomes actual accidents. 

​

Helmet and uniform analytics were also installed to ensure staff were fully equipped with the right uniform and safety gears at all time. When non-compliant uniform or a lack of proper gears were spotted by the system, real time alerts will be sent to the control station.
