Abstract
Commercial material processing machines such as garment laundering often entail conveyors and large containers (e.g., dryer drum, washer) that pose safety hazards to workers who work in proximity to the equipment, even safety procedures if followed would preclude the worker from inadvertently entering the machine. Having an interrogator antenna within the machine and a transmitter attached to the worker, such as a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag provides a means for sensing when a worker is in a hazardous position. When sensed, safety circuitry shuts off actuators to prevent further conveying of material into the machine and movement of the large container (e.g., drum).
