1. A smart safety ladder comprising:
a hollow frame of the ladder comprising four side rail legs;
a plurality of weight sensors embedded within the frame of the ladder;
a plurality of gyroscopes embedded within the frame of the ladder;
a plurality of actuators embedded within the side rail legs of the ladder;
a plurality of steps that connect across pairs of the side rail legs;
a temperature monitor embedded within the frame of the ladder;
an onboard computing device embedded within the frame of the ladder, wherein the onboard computing device comprises a smart safety software application that is configured to receive and analyze sensor data received from the weight sensors, the gyroscopes, and the temperature monitor, wherein the smart safety software application of the onboard computing device is further configured to determine a center of gravity of the ladder and weight distribution along each side rail leg of the four side rail legs; and
a plurality of battery packs embedded within the frame of the ladder and configured to provide power to the onboard computing device, the weight sensors, the gyroscopes, the actuators, and the temperature monitor.
