ANGELS (Augmented Network GEnerating Learning for Safety) is a system especially designed to help organizations improve efficiency in safety management by means of Augmented Reality guided procedures using mobile devices. The system is a risk prevention enabler initially developed and evaluated in the context of a European project by a consortium of partners in Italy, France, Spain and Czech Republic in the Healthcare industry.
The system is a cloud based platform which links together a web-based Admin client and several Mobile user clients. The Admin client allows safety managers to create Smart Environments out of the Hospital Departments thus adding relevant risk management information to areas in the Hospital. The information is coded by means of QR codes (choice motivated by the need of making the solution low-cost and scalable).
Features include:
- indoor navigation tools to identify areas of risk in the surrounding using AR and interactive maps
- creation of users profiles and possibility to associate specific tasks to selected users
- support for both synchronous and asynchronous communication
- support for different kinds of contents (text, audio, images, videos, 3D)
- alert system to manage priorities
- compliance with international risk management regulations
- Real time update of data related with the risks in the environment
- Assess the understanding of risks and procedures by users and managers
- Create structured, semi-structured and open training paths.
The system has been tested in the context of four pilot studies and four large scale trials in different European hospitals. In the opinion of involved operators it demonstrates a good to excellent usability. It also determines an improvement of the learning outcomes of the users.
