PRESENTING PROCESS DATA OF A PROCESS CONTROL OBJECT ON A MOBILE TERMINAL
First Claim
1. A method of determining objects present in a process control system, the method being performed by a video control arrangement and comprising the steps of:
- repeatedly scanning an area, via a group of video cameras comprising at least one video camera, in order to obtain a set of video streams;
determining if there are any new objects associated with the process control system in the area through detecting object identifiers of objects in the video streams;
determining if a detected new object is stationary or mobile;
reporting the detected object to a process control server; and
registering stationary objects as process control objects.

Abstract
A method, video control arrangement and a computer program product are provided for determining objects present in a process control system. The video control arrangement includes an object determining unit configured to order a group of video cameras, including at least one video camera, to repeatedly scan an area in order to obtain a set of video streams, determine if there are any new objects associated with the process control system in the area through detecting object identifiers of objects in the video streams, determine if a detected new object is stationary or mobile, report the detected object to a process control server and register stationary objects as process control objects.

13. A computer program product for determining objects present in a process control system, said computer program product being provided on a data carrier comprising computer program code configured to cause a video control arrangement to, when said computer program code is loaded into at least one device providing the video control arrangement:
-
order a group of video cameras, comprising at least one video camera, to repeatedly scan an area in order to obtain a set of video streams; determine if there are any new objects associated with the process control system in the area through detecting object identifiers of objects in the video streams; determine if a detected new object is stationary or mobile; report the detected object to a process control server; and register stationary objects as process control objects.
