This paper uses the fuzzy theory basics to assess accident risk that may damage a target (e.g., humans, assets, or the environment). Converting a target’s position to a membership degree in a fuzzy danger zone (FDZ) helps calculate risk indices. Using FDZs normalizes the effects of different kinds of hazards, similarly visualizes them, and distinguishes the impact of a threat on various types of targets. This paper presents a related mathematical formulation. The proposed approach evaluates the accident risks by simulating industrial activities in CAD, virtual reality, and augmented reality when using a concurrent engineering platform. This approach can calculate the risk index during a human task simulation and through real-time human interaction with a virtual machine during safety analysis and training. The results also are credible to activate alarm systems according to the operator’s limbs place during work. The model provides a normalized and similar scale for various risks (e.g., biological, chemical, and physical hazards) and computes the effect of danger on different target types.
