Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) have recently been utilized as an efficient safety inspection and monitoring tool on construction jobsites. However, their deployment could potentially result in hazardous situations such as worker distraction or struck-by accidents. This paper introduces iSafeUAS as an initial effort to develop and assess a platform designed for safety inspection purposes with customized features such as a super optical zoom RGB Camera and a Parachute Recovery System to ensure safe yet accurate visual data acquisition without the need to fly over or near populated areas. After conducting multiple flight tests to evaluate its technical performance, the iSafeUAS was deployed on a construction jobsite to validate its safety inspection capabilities. The study results showed that the Parachute Recovery System reduced the fatality probability by more than 40%, and the super optical zoom capabilities helped safety managers better identify and inspect potential safety hazards.

无人机系统（UAS）最近已被用作建筑工地上的有效安全检查和监视工具。但是，部署它们可能会导致危险情况，例如工人分心或发生意外事故。本文介绍iSafeUAS作为开发和评估安全检查目的平台的初步努力，该平台具有自定义功能，例如超级光学变焦RGB相机和降落伞恢复系统，以确保安全而准确的视觉数据采集而无需飞越或飞越。在人口稠密的地区附近。在进行了多次飞行测试以评估其技术性能之后，iSafeUAS被部署在施工现场以验证其安全检查能力。
