The South China Morning Post has covered viAct’s work to reduce construction fatalities in Hong Kong, an industry that records more accidents and fatalities than any other profession in the city. The article explores how viAct connects to existing on-site cameras to track workers, machinery, and materials in real time, triggering on-site alarms and mobile alerts the moment a violation is detected.
The piece underscores viAct’s core belief: that the construction industry’s safety gap is, at its root, a data problem, and AI exists to close it.
“The construction industry is very behind in terms of technologies. They don’t have data. They’re not using it, and they’re not seeing it. - Gary Ng, Co-founder and CEO, viAct”
