Abstract: A proximity warning system including cameras positioned on a machine, processors, and one or more memory devices including instructions for execution by the processors. The system includes instructions to receive, from the cameras, image data depicting an object within a field of view of the cameras. The system includes instructions to derive a first distance between the object and the machine based on the image data and an alarm is triggered when the first distance is less than a first threshold distance. The system can include instructions to receive a request to snooze the alarm and discontinue the alarm. Additional image data can be received from the cameras and a second distance between the object and the machine is derived based on the additional image data. The system includes instructions to cancel the snooze and retrigger the alarm when the second distance is less than a second threshold distance.

Abstract: A controller may process a plurality of video frames to determine an apparent motion of each pixel of one or more pixels or each group of pixels of one or more groups of pixels of each video frame of the plurality of video frames. The controller may select one or more processed video frames, of the plurality of processed video frames, that correspond to a duration of time and may generate a composite video frame based on the one or more processed video frames. The controller may generate a video frame mask based on the composite video frame and may obtain additional video data that includes at least one additional video frame. The controller may cause the video frame mask to be applied to the at least one additional video frame and may cause the at least one additional video frame to be processed using an object detection technique.

Abstract: An automatic condition monitoring and control system for a work machine may include an electronic control module configured for arrangement on the work machine. The electronic control module may be configured to monitor multiple conditions of the work machine and compare the multiple conditions to respective thresholds. The electronic control module may also be configured to start an engine of the work machine based on at least one of the comparisons, activate a heating or cooling system based on at least one of the comparisons, or both.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for estimating machine rotation state. The rotation state can include the rotation speed and/or angle as the machine rotates. In some implementations, an estimating machine rotation state system can receive image data, timestamped consecutively, from camera devices of a machine. The estimating machine rotation state system can generate optical flow vectors for the pixels of the image data and determine the hue and intensity of the pixels based on the optical flow vectors. Using the hues, intensities, and timestamps of the image data, the estimating machine rotation state system can generate an intensity plot over time. The estimating rotation states system can then determine a rotation speed of the machine based on the intensity plot. The estimating rotation states system can also determine a rotation angle of the machine by integrating the intensity plot over time.

Abstract: An object detection vision system and methods are disclosed. A method for detecting objects in a vision system of an industrial machine includes receiving image data from one or more vision cameras and receiving detection data from one or more detect devices. The detection data includes one or more detected objects. The method includes combining the detection data and the image data and transforming the detection data in the image data based on one or more objects in the image data. The method also includes displaying an indication of the detected one or more objects in the image data based on the transformed detection data.
