Abstract

Various embodiments are directed to an apparatus for monitoring a loading operation, comprising: a movable body configured to be inserted in a loading space of a carrier during a loading operation and proximate to an upper portion of the loading space; an imaging device secured to the movable body, the imaging device configured to capture imaging data of the loading space, wherein the captured imaging data comprise a three-dimensional (3D) map of the loading space; a distance measuring device secured to the movable body, the distance measuring device configured for measuring a distance between the imaging device and a front wall of the loading space; and a controller configured to receive the imaging data captured by the imaging device, wherein the controller comprise one or more processors configured to detect a loading condition of the loading space of the carrier based at least in part on the imaging data.
