Abstract
A system and method for distributed surveillance of an area to monitor a process and visual effects of the process. Exemplary methods include, among others, asset effectiveness, issue identification and prioritization, workflow optimization, monitoring, estimation, verification, compliance, presentation, and/or identification for a given process. Such application may include, but are not limited to, manufacturing, quality control, supply chain management, and safety compliance.
Claims20
A method of visualizing a process, comprising:
- receiving data from one or more data sources, including one or more cameras;
- analyzing the received data to identify one or more inefficiency events in the process;
- and
- visualizing the analyzed data,
- wherein the visualizing the analyzed data includes displaying a user interface on a display and the user interface includes a timeline of video segments and permits a user interface input to zoom in and out, wherein the timeline that is zoomed out provides an indicator of a total number of inefficiency events and corresponding time effect based on the total number of inefficiency events, and the timeline that is zoomed in provides a second indicator of the identity of the inefficiency event and an associated duration of the inefficiency event on the zoomed in timeline.

A method of visualizing a process, comprising:
- receiving data from one or more data sources, including one or more cameras;
- analyzing the received data to identify one or more inefficiency events in the process;
- and
- visualizing the analyzed data,
- wherein the analysis of received data comprises identifying an inefficiency, wherein an inefficiency is determined by an underutilized resource because of a branch in the process with one side of the branch creating a lag compared to another side of the branch.
