Abstract
A system may include at least one camera disposed on a drilling platform, a structure on the drilling platform in which the at least one camera is focused, and/or an information handling system in communication with the at least one camera. The information handling system may be configured to form an image of the structure from the at least one camera, disposing at least one of a background anchor, a primary virtual sensor point, or a relative anchor on the image, recording a movement of at least one of the background anchor, the primary virtual sensor point, or the relative anchor on the image, and/or identifying a pressure increase within the structure based at least in part on the movement.

A system comprising:
- at least one camera disposed on a drilling platform;
- a structure on the drilling platform in which the at least one camera is focused;
- an information handling system in communication with the at least one camera and configured to:
- form an image of the structure from the at least one camera;
- disposing at least one of a background anchor, a primary virtual sensor point, or a relative anchor on the image;
- recording a movement of at least one of the background anchor, the primary virtual sensor point, or the relative anchor on the image;
- and
- identifying a pressure increase within the structure based at least in part on the movement.
A method comprising:
- disposing at least one camera on a drilling platform;
- focusing the at least one camera on a structure on the drilling platform;
- form an image of the structure from the at least one camera with an information handling system;
- disposing at least one of a background anchor, a primary virtual sensor point, or a relative anchor on the image;
- recording a movement of at least one of the background anchor, the primary virtual sensor point, or the relative anchor on the image;
- and
- identifying a pressure increase within the structure based at least in part on the movement.
