Review the approach to a machine hazard

A person close to a machine in an image may be separated in depth or working under an authorized maintenance condition. Assess a defined region and any required calibration before treating proximity as a safety concern.

Catalog workflow. Detector availability, scene suitability and event delivery must be verified for the proposed deployment. Camera observations supplement human review and established safety procedures.

The Process

How It Works

Define the clearance before assessing the image Focus attention on an assessed machine clearance.

01

Camera input

Capture the machine boundary and pedestrian approach together.

02

Visual criteria

Validate the chosen zone or calibrated distance method.

03

Event review

Review the person’s position and the machine’s known work state.

04

Operator response

Supervisor checks separation and manages access under the local procedure.

ObservationA person overlaps or approaches a defined machine-clearance region.A person crosses into a defined machine-area region.
Event criteriaThe validated proximity criterion is met in the monitored view.The validated track or presence changes from outside to inside.
Monitoring setupAgree geometry, machine-state evidence and maintenance exceptions.Confirm boundary, direction and applicable work windows.
What it cannot establishPixel separation is not automatically physical distance or proof of machine operation.Entry does not establish unauthorized access or hazardous machine motion.
Practical outcomeHelp supervisors investigate possible separation breaches using machine-specific context.Create a clear boundary-crossing context for machine-area access review.

Frequently asked questions

Unsafe Proximity to Machinery, Explained.

Reviews people approaching a defined clearance region around machinery.

Can it measure distance in metres?

Only if a suitable calibrated method is verified for the scene.

Does the camera know the machine is running?

Not necessarily; operating-state evidence must be separately established.

Is crossing a drawn zone always unsafe?

No. Review authorization and the machine condition.

Can it replace a machine interlock?

No. It is supplemental observation, not a protective safety function.
