Abstract

Systems and methods presented herein include an anti-collision and motion monitoring system includes one or more light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems configured to detect locations of one or more objects in an environment. The anti-collision and motion monitoring system also includes one or more camera systems configured to capture images of the one or more objects in the environment that are detected by the one or more LiDAR systems. The anti-collision and motion monitoring system further includes processing circuitry configured to coordinate operation of the one or more LiDAR systems and the one or more camera systems, to receive inputs from the one or more LiDAR systems and the one or more camera systems relating to the one or more objects in the environment, to process the inputs received from the one or more LiDAR systems and the one or more camera systems to determine outputs relating to control of at least one of the one or more objects in the environment, and to communicate the outputs to a central coordinator to control one or more operating parameters of at least one of the one or more objects in the environment based at least in part on the inputs received from th…
