Technology and innovation are key to optimizing time and resources in the construction sector.
TimelapseLab, a startup based in Mantua and Milan, was founded with this conviction, offering a patented system for remote construction site monitoring. Founded by IT engineer Damiano Bauce, the company stands out for its use of high-quality industrial devices paired with AI-based software, providing a forward-looking solution for managing site activities and ensuring worker safety. The team, composed of highly qualified software developers, continually updates the platform, currently working on integrating an automatic project scheduling feature.
TimelapseLab’s plug-and-play devices, resistant to extreme temperatures and weather conditions, can be easily installed independently, requiring no routine maintenance. Equipped with data SIMs, they send 4K images to the software, enabling remote monitoring of activities. The advanced software includes real-time obfuscation of sensitive data such as individuals, vehicles, or specific areas, and promptly sends alerts to managers in case of anomalies, such as malfunctions, weather warnings, unauthorized access, or missing helmets and other safety equipment.
The web platform allows users to easily access images via a single link, with options to download individual photos, an entire month of snapshots, or create intermediate timelapse videos to visualize proper project progress. Additionally, the automated reporting system, powered by neural networks, generates useful reports for site management on people, vehicles, or equipment while ensuring GDPR compliance with ISDP 10003 certification, providing safe and transparent information management.
The platform’s multi-level access is designed to adapt to various corporate roles, including project managers, engineers, architects, HSE managers, site managers, CEOs, and technical directors, as well as for Public Administrations and companies involved in public tenders.
Beyond monitoring, this technology can serve as a powerful marketing tool, thoroughly documenting construction progress from start to finish. It offers clients a valuable opportunity to showcase their expertise and professionalism, providing a significant competitive advantage in the sector.
TimelapseLab also offers other innovative services: Avacam, a real-time landslide monitoring system using timelapse photos to track ground movements and send alerts to prevent risks in geologically unstable areas; SnapAll, remote construction site monitoring software compatible with any IP camera; and YouMarell, a web platform dedicated to construction sites. Inspired by the Bolognese dialect word “umarell”—referring to elderly gentlemen observing construction sites—it features images, videos, a “Wikipedia of construction sites,” podcasts, and web pages tailored for companies and Public Administrations, supporting visibility and transparency obligations toward citizens.
