Reducing Safety Risks in Construction Tower Crane Operations: A Dynamic Path Planning Model by Binqing Cai, Zhukai Ye, Shiwei Chen, Xun Liang

“…To reduce safety risks in construction tower crane operations, this research proposes a dynamic path planning model for tower crane operations based on computer vision technology and dynamic path planning algorithms. The proposed model consists of three modules: first, a path information collection module preprocessing the video data to capture relevant operational path information; second, a path safety risk evaluation module employing You Only Look Once version 8 (YOLOv8) instance segmentation to identify potential risk factors along the operational path, e.g., potential drop zones and the positions of nearby workers; and finally, a path planning module utilizing an improved Dynamic Window Approach for tower cranes (TC-DWA) to avoid risky areas and optimize the operational path for enhanced safety. …”
