Abstract

A method and system for assisting the controlling of movement of one or more transport devices operating in a workspace. The method involves obtaining an image representation of the workspace captured by one or more image sensors and a target image portion of the image representation of the workspace. The target image portion is mapped to a target location in the workspace. An exclusion zone in the workspace, comprising the target location, is determined based on the mapping. The exclusion zone in the workspace is to prohibit the one or more transport devices from entering. Exclusion zone data, representative of the exclusion zone, is outputted to a control system for implementing the exclusion zone in the workspace.
