ATTACHMENT DETECTION METHOD AND SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computer processor of a computing system, attachment data describing different devices associated with and attachable to an electro/mechanical apparatus;
retrieving, by said computer processor from a detection device, first data describing a first attachment device currently attached to said electro/mechanical apparatus, wherein said first data describes a type and usage for said first attachment;
analyzing, by said computer processor, said attachment data with respect to said first data;
determining, by said computer processor in response to results of said analyzing, a first match between said attachment data and said first data;
determining, by said computer processor in response to said first match, first specified protective gear required for operation of said electro/mechanical apparatus and said first attachment device currently attached to said electro/mechanical apparatus;
generating, by said computer processor, first indication data specifying required usage of said first specified protective gear; and
presenting, by said computer processor to a user of said electro/mechanical apparatus, said first indication data.

Abstract
An attachment detection method and system. The method includes receiving, by a computer processor of a computing system, attachment data describing different devices associated with and attachable to an electro/mechanical apparatus. The computer processor retrieves first data describing a first attachment device currently attached to the electro/mechanical apparatus and analyzes the attachment data with respect to the first data. In response to the analysis, the computer processor determines specified protective gear required for operation of the electro/mechanical apparatus and the first attachment device. The computer processor generates indication data specifying required usage of the specified protective gear and presents the indication data to a user.
