Man-down and fall detection that gets help to a worker faster

When someone collapses and does not get back up, every minute counts. Foreman watches your existing cameras, flags a person who is down and not moving, and sends photo proof and a voice call, so a medical emergency is never found too late.

The cost of finding out too late

On a busy floor, a worker can collapse in an aisle, behind a machine, or in a corner no one is watching. By the time someone walks past, critical minutes are already gone.

A fall that goes unseen turns a survivable moment into a serious injury, a liability, and a call you never want to make to a family. The danger is not only the fall. It is the time between the fall and someone noticing.

Foreman closes that gap. It treats your cameras as a second set of eyes that never blink, so a person down and still gets flagged the moment it happens, not at the next shift walk-through.

What you get as the owner

This is about getting help moving sooner and protecting both your people and your business.

  • Faster response when a worker falls and stays down, so an emergency is acted on in minutes rather than discovered later
  • Photo proof of where and who, so whoever responds knows exactly where to go
  • A voice call to your phone, so a critical alert reaches you even when you are away from a screen
  • Less liability and fewer worst-case outcomes from incidents that went unnoticed for too long
  • Confidence that the floor is being watched during breaks, night shifts, and quiet hours

How it works

Foreman runs as software on your existing CCTV. No new hardware, no cameras to buy. Install takes about 60 seconds on a Windows machine and works with the Hikvision, CP Plus, Dahua, and other DVR or NVR systems you already have.

When a person goes down and stays down and still, Foreman flags it. Every event gets a second, more thorough check before you are alerted, so a normal crouch or a quick sit-down is far less likely to reach you as a false alarm.

If it confirms a person is down, you get a Telegram alert with a photo and a voice call to your phone. A daily report keeps you in the loop on everything the system saw.

An early warning, not a replacement for safety

Be clear on this. Foreman is an assistive early-warning alert. It helps you find out faster that someone may be down, so you can respond sooner.

It does not replace first-aid, trained supervision, or your emergency protocols. It complements them. A flagged alert is a prompt to send a person to check and to follow your established response plan, not a medical assessment.

Used alongside your safety officer and your emergency procedures, it gives your team something they have never had: a watchful eye on every camera, all the time, that raises a hand the moment something looks wrong.

Built on our own AI models

Foreman runs its own AI models, trained in-house for the realities of factory and warehouse floors, where lighting is uneven, aisles are cluttered, and people move in ways a generic system does not expect.

We hold our work to the published state of the art and are releasing our benchmark and paper so you can see how we measure up. Follow the detail on our research page.

Frequently asked

How does it tell a real fall from someone sitting or resting?

Foreman looks for a person who goes down and then stays down and still, which is what separates a collapse from a normal crouch, bend, or quick sit-down. On top of that, every event gets a second, more thorough check before you are alerted, which further reduces false alarms. It is an assistive alert, so the final call always rests with the person responding to the prompt.

Does this replace my safety officer?

No. Foreman is an early-warning aid, not a substitute for a safety officer, first-aid, or your emergency protocols. It helps your team find out faster that someone may be down so they can respond sooner, then follow your established procedures. Think of it as another set of eyes on every camera, supporting the people and systems you already have.

Does it work at night?

It works whenever your cameras can see. If your floor has working night cameras with usable footage, Foreman keeps watching through night shifts and quiet hours, exactly when a fall is most likely to go unnoticed. Where a camera cannot see, neither can the system, so good lighting and coverage matter.

Do I need to buy new cameras or hardware?

No. Foreman is software only and runs on the CCTV you already have, including common Hikvision, CP Plus, and Dahua DVR or NVR systems and any standard RTSP or ONVIF feed. Install takes about 60 seconds on a Windows machine, with nothing new to mount on the floor.

What exactly happens when a person is flagged as down?

You receive a Telegram alert with a photo showing where and who, plus a voice call to your phone so the alert reaches you even away from a screen. You also get a daily report. That gives your team what they need to send someone to check and act on your emergency plan quickly.
