REMOTE WORKSITE MONITORING SYSTEM |
摘要 |
A remote worksite monitoring system is provided. The remote worksite monitoring system includes a machine operating at a worksite, The remote worksite monitoring system also includes an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) associated with the machine. The UAV includes a control module and a sensor module. The UAV is adapted to fly to a location proximate to an area at which the machine is present. The UAV is adapted to directly communicate with the machine over a first communication network to at least one of receive machine data from the machine and transfer data to the machine when direct communication between the machine and a remote control station cannot be established. Further, the UAV is adapted to transmit the machine data received from the machine to the remote control station over a second communication network. |
