SmartInspect
AI vision tool that analyzes images of any space or equipment with text context to rapidly identify safety hazards.
Research question
Safety inspections at ORNL require trained personnel to manually walk spaces and document hazards. Coverage is incomplete, subjective, and slow—especially for time-sensitive or remote environments.
Research approach
Takes an image of a space or piece of equipment plus optional text context, runs it through a multimodal vision-language model for safety analysis, and outputs a structured hazard analysis with risk scores and corrective actions.
