In recent years, as the state has attached great importance to building urban safety resilience, policies such as the 14th Five-Year Plan for Urban Safety Development and the Guidelines for Building Monitoring Systems for the Safe Operation of Urban Lifeline Projects have been introduced one after another, and the survey and assessment of safety risks of urban infrastructure has accelerated across the board.

Against this backdrop, Haytham, with its advanced visual perception and intelligent analysis technologies, has actively participated in the development of urban lifeline monitoring systems, committed to contributing to public safety and sustainable urban development.

Urban Lifelines Matter to Every Household

Urban lifeline facilities are the invisible backbone that keeps a city running normally, covering bridges, tunnels, rail transit, underground utility corridors and other fields. Once structural hazards occur, they not only affect urban functions but may also threaten the lives and property of the public.

However, facing multiple challenges such as facility aging, natural disasters and extreme weather, traditional monitoring methods suffer from insufficient coverage, slow response and delayed early warning, so more scientific and systematic monitoring solutions are urgently needed.

The Haytham Solution Helps Enhance Urban Resilience

In view of the safety risk characteristics of urban infrastructure, Haytham has launched a visual trackerbased structural health and safety monitoring system with distinctive features:

• Non-contact monitoring: Based on oblique optical axis DIC vision technology, it requires no complex wiring and can accurately sense changes such as settlement, cracks, displacement and vibration from a long distance.

• Multi-sensor fusion: It can work with GNSS, inclinometers, strain gauges, temperature and humidity sensors and other devices to form a system-level real-time monitoring network.

• All-weather online: It performs continuous 7×24 monitoring, automatically uploads data to the cloud platform, and supports remote access from multiple terminals such as mobile phones and computers.

• Intelligent analysis and early warning: Combining big data and AI algorithms, it identifies abnormal trends in real time and proactively pushes risk warning messages.

• Flexible deployment for complex environments: It supports solar power supply and wireless transmission, and is suitable for different working conditions such as elevated locations, tunnels, underwater sites and the open field.

Empowering Urban Lifeline Safety Governance

The Haytham structural health and safety monitoring system has been widely applied in:

• Monitoring of bridge structural deflection and vibration status

• Monitoring of tunnel crown settlement and crack propagation

• Stability assessment of urban underground space structures

• Deformation tracking of slopes, retaining walls and foundation pits

• Health diagnosis of key projects such as reservoir dams and tailings ponds

Through continuous monitoring, precise early warning and scientific assessment, it has provided solid support for urban lifeline hazard screening, risk control and governance improvement in various regions.

Safeguarding Urban Lifelines, Protecting Every Home

The safety of urban lifelines concerns the prosperity of a city as well as the daily life of every citizen.

Haytham has always believed that technological innovation is not merely technical progress, but should also become an important force for public safety and social well-being.

Going forward, Haytham will continue to work with governments, enterprises and public institutions, and industry partners to deepen its expertise in urban lifeline safety monitoring, help cities become safer, more resilient and more sustainable, and safeguard the peace of mind and happy life of every household.
