  • Patent number: 11468684
    Abstract: A system for situational awareness monitoring within an environment, wherein the system includes one or more processing devices configured to receive an image stream including a plurality of captured images from each of a plurality of imaging devices, the plurality of imaging devices being configured to capture images of objects within the environment and at least some of the imaging devices being positioned within the environment to have at least partially overlapping fields of view, identify overlapping images in the different image streams, the overlapping images being images captured by imaging devices having overlapping fields of view, analyse the overlapping images to determine object locations within the environment, analyse changes in the object locations over time to determine object movements within the environment, compare the object movements to situational awareness rules and use results of the comparison to identify situational awareness events.
