  • Systems and methods for controlling an imaging system of a marine vessel
    Patent number: 12662229
    Abstract: An imaging system for a marine vessel is provided. The marine vessel includes a propulsion system configured to provide thrust that propels the marine vessel in a propulsion direction having a surge component, a sway component, and a yaw component. The imaging system includes multiple imaging sensors positioned to image multiple directions around the marine vessel and configured to generate image data, a display device configured to display at least a portion of the image data, and a control system. The control system is configured to select a first portion of the image data based on each of the surge component, the sway component, and the yaw component of the propulsion direction, and display the selected first portion of the image data on the display device.

  • Person detection in a marine environment
    Patent number: 10372976
    Abstract: An object detection system for a marine vessel having at least one marine drive includes at least one image sensor positioned on the marine vessel and configured to capture an image of a marine environment on or around the marine vessel, and a processor. The object detection system further includes an image scanning module executable on the processor that receives the image as input. The image scanning module includes an artificial neural network trained to detect patterns within the image of the marine environment associated with one or more predefined objects, and to output detection information regarding a presence or absence of the one or more predefined objects within the image of the marine environment.
