OPENTECHNICAL PUBLICATION OT-2026-000002614 Systems and methods for object detection Published: 2026-09-15T19:14:12.640751Z Permanent URL: https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002614 Categories: Sensors, Controls & Machine Vision > Industrial Control ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ABSTRACT Embodiments provided herein include systems and methods for object detection in an environment. One embodiment of a system includes a vehicle with a wireless communication receiver for receiving communication from a wireless communication transmitter that is placed on a first object and a computing device that includes a memory component and a processor. The memory component may store logic that causes the system to receive a communication from the wireless communication transmitter, receive proximity data related to a second object, and determine a second location of the second object. Some embodiments cause the system to determine a control zone along a current path of the vehicle based on a speed of the vehicle, and in response to determining that at least one of the following enters the control zone: the first object or the second object, reduce the speed of the vehicle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenTechnical publication OT-2026-000002614 Published 2026-09-15T19:14:12.640751Z https://opentechnical.org/p/OT-2026-000002614
