Dr. Huynh Quoc Bao, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Information Technology at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH), delivered a keynote address at IEEE TEMSMET 2026 in India. He presented his research on using artificial intelligence (AI) to monitor the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) at construction sites.
Held from October 28 to 31, the 5th IEEE International Conference on Technology, Engineering, Management for Societal Impact using Marketing, Entrepreneurship, and Talent (IEEE TEMSMET 2026) was organized by Symbiosis International (Deemed University), India, and sponsored by the IEEE Technology and Engineering Management Society (IEEE TEMS).
IEEE TEMSMET 2026 brings together scientists and experts from around the world to exchange ideas on AI, technology, and innovation
Under the theme “Innovating for All: AI, Sustainability, and the Spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam,” the conference brought together scientists, experts, and faculty members to discuss AI applications, sustainable technology development, and how innovation can address real-world challenges.
In his keynote, “Intelligent Personal Protective Equipment Monitoring for Construction Environments,” Dr. Bao described his research on an AI system designed to automatically monitor PPE use at construction sites. The system aims to make it easier to monitor compliance with safety requirements on site.
