Abstract
A system for detecting a man-overboard event, comprising a plurality of first computing units having at least one optical sensor with a predetermined detection range and a second computing unit connected to the plurality of computing units, characterized in that each first computing unit is designed, independently of the others, to evaluate the data sensed by the at least one optical sensor of the respective first computing unit to determine whether a man-overboard event is present on the basis of these data and, when a man-overboard event is present, to report this to the second computing unit,
