ABSTRACT

A system is provided for managing safety of bridge cranes in an industrial
environment. The system comprises: (a) a first real-time locating component
for generating a first location data stream about a crane within the
industrial environment; (b) a second real-time locating component for
generating a second location data stream about mobile persons and objects
within the industrial environment; (c) one or more processors in communication
with the first real-time locating component and the second and configured to:
synchronizing the first location data stream and the second location data
stream, converting the first location data stream into a coordinate of the
second time locating component, and determine a collision event between the
crane and the movable object; and (d) optionally a component using
optical/infrared sensors (camera, LIDAR, etc.) backed by artificial
intelligence for visualization and high-level analytics.
