9. LG Display Paju Factory - Real Time Location Based Worker Safety Management
IndoorPlus+ RTLS geolocation and smart sensors is a key component in a workers safety solution.
Workers in large-scale automated facilities are often likely to work in isolation and feel it is difficult to interact with their
colleagues from a distance. In this condition, the centralized and convenient monitoring system proves to be very efficient in
immediately detecting a possible safety issue or any emergent problems for the workers on site.
Along with solid safety processes and control, real-time monitoring is the only way to get an immediate overview of the situa-
tion and trigger actions with maximum visibility. It is the next step for companies to use technology to save lives and demon-
strate a commitment to protecting workers’ safety.
Case Study : Workers Safety Management
How many people are in a particular area or floor?
What is their location, as precisely as possible, in the work-
space?
Who are these people, are they employees? Or are they
temporary or long-term subcontractors?
How long will it take for rescue teams to arrive?
Needs Analysis
In January 2015, a serious accident caused the death of 2
people as well as several casualties.
Financial liabilities, halted production, damage to brand,
and the impact on the confidence of personnel on working
and safety conditions were some of the direct or indirect
negative consequences for LG Display.
Multiple inspections were carried out and the implementa-
tion of remedies was ordered to prevent future accidents.
Along with a risk analysis, strong safety measures, and the
current low density of people inside highly automated facto-
ries make it very difficult to keep an eye on who is where.
In the case of an accident or danger, with few workers in the
same area or workspace, there is often little opportunity to
get help from a colleague.
The typical questions that LG Display needed to have
answered were:
10. Case Study : Workers Safety Management
Major Features and Benefits
Worker count in the each defined workspace
Dashboard monitoring of each area (i.e. each floor of
building including underground facilities)
Provision of real-time geolocation of workers (data
itself is secured with encryption, and access of location
data is restricted under the regulations of the country in
which it operates in as well as customers wishes)
SOS emergency signals received from workers with the
automatic display of location
Alerts management when a worker enters a dangerous
or unauthorized zone
Integration with other equipment to send in rescue
team
Display and monitoring of the golden period, time
planning for maximizing the chance of saving lives
All workers have to wear a particular BLE Beacon Tag when
they enter the zone, the tag is equipped with an emergency
button that can be used in the case of emergency. The use
of telephones is unauthorized in most of the areas.
Typical features provided by PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY
solutions are:
Why was PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY selected?
PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY performed BMT (Bench Mark
Testing). In January 2017, thanks to a successful Proof of
Concept lasting 4 weeks, LG Display selected IndoorPlus
RTLS as the solution to be deployed. One building was
initially entirely equipped with IndoorPlus+ RTLS Solution.
The key differentiators or triggers for this choice were
industrial-grade solution, reliability and accuracy, easiness
of integration with legacy system, and more over proven
technology in the metallic environment of the factory.
Future plan and Expansion
A location tracking hybrid solution enabled by a safety
App for smartphones is to be launched for corporate
mobile phones after the private LTE has been intro-
duced
Use from one building to other sites and other company
factories
Additional expected benefits
Sensor fusion: Adding smart sensor information to
geolocation through use of BLE sensors (for example
presence of hazardous gases such as CO2 and NO in
industrial sites) with either standalone sensors or those
worn by workers (i.e. providing a real time health check
such as heart rate, body temperature and additional
measurement features in line with their work)
Asset tracking
Analysis of work flow to improve workplace processes
11. Hyundai Motors Data Center - Access control and security based
on workers location and tracking in the Data Center
Needs Analysis
Prevent security incidents such as the leaking of personal
information of credit card companies directly from the
server via an unauthorized an USB memory stick.
Strengthen security around access control through manage-
ment history of security zone, access and staying time of
workers and staff in high level secure facilities and zones.
Provide predictive insight into where a certain security
incident might occur under certain conditions through an
analysis the accumulated tracking logs.
Why PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY?
Proven solution to prevent interference from various steel
structures to servers and containers
Positioning accuracy of two server racks (about 1.5m)
Offers a cost-effective solution
RTLS-based people tracking solution enhances the physical security of access to secure areas and access controlled areas
by locating visitors and internal staff in real-time. Efforts to protect sensitive personal information, customer information,
and corporate intellectual property from various security threats are not a choice but a necessity for a company's survival
and development.
By tracking the location of visitors or staff in real-time, RTLS Security, which essentially prevents unauthorized visits and
access to controlled and secure areas, will open up a new era of physical security. See the innovation in security with RTLS!

- Tracking and managing mobile assets in hospitals
Needs Analysis
Cope with a dire shortage of nursing staff since the Middle
East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS) outbreak
in 2015
Increase productivity of nurses before hiring new ones.
Internal studies show that nurses could spend between 30
min to 1 hour per day looking for “assets”
Understand how and which important assets are used
(from medical devices to beds or wheelchairs)
Utilize the replacement of the old Wi-Fi AP with the new IoT
Access Point combining Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
Why PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY?
Strong understanding of hospital environment and
requirements based on PEOPLE AND TECHNOLOGY’s
solution’s deployment to more than 8 hospitals
Scalability of a solution that utilizes built-in Bluetooth chip
in Wi-Fi Access Point to deliver real-time geolocation with
required accuracy
Easy to deploy solution with application of nurses and
staff to the management dashboard
RTLS-based Asset Tracking can significantly improve the productivity of teams, organizations and businesses. Studies show
that in many business segments, staff wastes several hours a week just looking for tools or goods to perform their day-to-day
tasks. By getting an immediate response to the question “Where is that stuff?” they can regain time to accomplish crucial and
important tasks.
Beyond Asset tracking, management can also build Asset Intelligence ‒ meaning that knowing how the assets move inside
the company, they can obtain more business intelligence to optimize processes, use data-driven decisions on whether to
purchase additional equipment or not, renegotiate their maintenance contracts with suppliers, and refine the management
of some key elements of their inventory.

15. Needs Analysis
Up to 100 days of processes are required for the produc-
tion of one finished product. Due to the nature of aviation
engine parts, accurate lead-time should be kept (for evidence
in case of accidents)
Currently, the bar code reader is used but it is difficult to
trust the total process time measurement due to human
error.
The RTLS system enables the user to find engine parts
quickly if they scattered here and there. It will optimize
the labor working time, and determine the proper quanti-
ty of stock. Moreover, it will prevent the loss of parts
