Discussion on the Project of Smart Tool Kit
In the aircraft industry safety should be the utmost priority because the risks such as FOD can cause great harm to the aircraft and the aircraft can become the victim of a huge accident which can result in the loss of many lives. Many accidents have indicated that FOD is a major threat to the aircraft and causes huge damage to the aircraft and sometimes it results in serious damage to the individuals who are in the aircraft. The purpose of the aim of this project is to decline the risk of FOD up to a lot of extents. The Smart Tools Kit project can help the aircraft industry to reduce external debris.
The smart tool kit will help the workers in the aircraft industry to manage their tools efficiently and if any worker has left the tools in the aircraft, then they can be easily located. The sensors will be placed in the tools which will allow the workers to allocate them easily. He Smart Tool Kit project can not only be used in the aviation industry but can also be applied in industries such as railways, marine vessels, automation, oil & gas, and other engineering industries where FOD can cause serious consequences. With Smart Tool kit, the workers will not lose the tools, and if this happens, then tools can be found in less amount of time.
The aim of this research project is to find a solution to the problem of Tool FOD. The project's aim is to reduce accidents and provide safety in-flight maintenance. The FOD is a major problem, and if this problem is analyzed critically, then it can be understood that it not only deadly for the machines but also for human beings as well. Due to FOD, the aviation industry lost millions of dollars. Therefore the motivation behind this project is not only to enhance safety but also to mitigate the financial loss which occurs due to the FOD.
