Sensor positioning system

A method for monitoring aquatic cargo, the method comprising:

• receiving data indicating (i) parameters of a movable underwater sensor system, the underwater sensor system including an imaging system and (ii) a position for the underwater sensor system for capturing media by the imaging system;
• and
• providing instructions to control (i) the underwater sensor system to be automatically maneuvered to the indicated position, comprising instructing one or more motorized pulley systems to move a line coupled to the underwater sensor system, (ii) the imaging system to capture media of aquatic cargo at the indicated position, and (iii) the underwater sensor system to track the aquatic cargo.

One or more non-transitory computer storage media encoded with computer program instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• receiving data indicating (i) parameters of a movable underwater sensor system, the underwater sensor system including an imaging system and (ii) a position for the underwater sensor system for capturing media by the imaging system;
• and
• providing instructions to control (i) the underwater sensor system to be automatically maneuvered to the indicated position, comprising instructing one or more motorized pulley systems to move a line coupled to the underwater sensor system, (ii) the imaging system to capture media of aquatic cargo at the indicated position, and (iii) the underwater sensor system to track the aquatic cargo.
