RFID’d helmets

3 Japanese companies –Nishimatsu Kensetsu, Toda Kensetsu, and Yokohama Systems– got together to develop an RFID-based labor management system for construction sites.

The system is deployed at a dyke construction site in the city of Sendai. RFID tags are attached on workers helmets and read at the entrance of the site. The companies intend to introduce further value-added services using this system.
