In conjunction to that, EAS is a sensible and also a fool proof device as there is a pulse sensor attached to the entrant's harness which will be monitored by the watcher continuously according to the intervals that have been fixed. The output of the product is to warn the entrant and get him out of the confined space within the time interval, without any major injuries. Consequently, this product is developed by taking the safety measures of the workers into account. This innovation is never been done before in the aviation or any other field.
