Abstract: The invention comprises a sensor unit, and method and system for cargo and personnel detection and tracking. The method comprising the following steps: detecting, or creating for new CCUs, a unique CCU signature, wherein the unique CCU signature is constructed by analyzing images of the CCU capture by a sensor device, and analyzing the images according to one or more of predefined detection methods, and the analysis providing a combination of one or more descriptors defined by CCU feature points, contours, dimensions, weight, colour, movement pattern, neighbour CCU feature point, planned travel route or last known location.

Abstract: An apparatus for providing an estimate for a 3D camera pose relative to a scene from 2D image data of a 2D image frame provided by the camera is provided, the apparatus using four types of observations: (a) detected 2D-3D point correspondences; (b) tracked 2D-3D point correspondences; (c) motion model observations; and (d) edge observations.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a system, device and a method for loading and/or unloading a cargo to and/or from a second vehicle where a loading device is mounted on a first vehicle. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for a sensor system (with sensor platform deployed at the crane tip) used for heave compensation and 3D positioning of cargo and second vehicle during loading and unloading process of cargo to/from a ship where a crane is mounted on an oil rig.

Abstract: An apparatus for providing an estimate for a 3D camera pose relative to a scene from 2D image data of 2D image frame provided by said camera. A candidate 2D key points detector determines candidate 2D key points from the 2D image frame. A detected 3D observations detector determines detected 3D observations from pre-recorded scene data and the candidate 2D key points. A detected 3D camera pose estimator determines a detected 3D camera pose estimate from the camera data, the detected 3D observations and the candidate 2D key points. A first storage stores the detected 2D candidate key points and the 2D image data, and outputs in response to a 3D camera pose estimate output previous 2D image data and candidate 2D key points related to a previous 3D camera pose estimate output. A second storage stores and outputs a previous 3D camera pose estimate.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a method and computer-based system for configuring, monitoring and/or operating a graphical user interface in two or three dimensions. In particular it is concerned with a graphical user interface used for controlling, monitoring and/or operating equipment in a control system of an industrial process or an installation for oil and gas or for an installation for electrical power generating, transmission and/or distribution.
