METHOD FOR COMMISSIONING A NETWORK OF OPTICAL SENSORS ACROSS A FLOORSPACE

A method includes: accessing a floorplan representing the floorspace; and extracting from the floorplan a set of floorplan features representing areas of interest in the floorspace. The method also includes, calculating a set of target locations relative to the floorplan that, when occupied by the s...

Zusammenfassung:A method includes: accessing a floorplan representing the floorspace; and extracting from the floorplan a set of floorplan features representing areas of interest in the floorspace. The method also includes, calculating a set of target locations relative to the floorplan that, when occupied by the set of sensor blocks: locate the areas of interest in the floorspace within fields of view of the set sensor blocks; and yield a minimum overlap in fields of view of adjacent sensor blocks in the set of sensor blocks. The method further includes, for each sensor block in the sensor blocks installed over the floorspace: receiving, from the sensor block, an image of the floorspace; based on overlaps in the image with images from other sensor blocks in sensor blocks, estimating an installed location of the sensor block; and mapping the sensor block to a target location in the set of target locations.
