  • Dynamic three-dimensional imaging distance safeguard
    Patent number: 11270463
    Abstract: A monitoring component may select a reference area, associated with an environment of an imaging system, based on a three-dimensional (3D) image obtained by the imaging system. The monitoring component may determine a reference image corresponding to the reference area. The reference image may be determined based on design data associated with the environment of the imaging system. The monitoring component may perform, based on the 3D image and the reference image, a functional safety check to determine a functional safety status associated with the imaging system. The monitoring component may selectively provide a signal based on the determined functional safety state.
