  • Publication number: 20230384763
    Abstract: A system may include a control system for controlling one or more operations of one or more industrial devices in an industrial system. The control system may receive streaming data comprising one or more visualizations representative of one or more live operational parameters associated with one or more industrial devices. The streaming data may include multiple image frames.
