Overview
Floating debris such as branches, garbage, and construction waste can block culverts and sluice gates, damage pumps, and carry pollution downstream. Traditional patrols often discover these risks too late, especially during floods or at night. By using AI-enabled video and radar sensing to detect floating objects on the water surface in real time, authorities can locate hazards earlier, protect hydraulic structures, and keep waterways safer and cleaner.
Recommended Solutions
It deploys floating object detection at bridges, pump stations, sluice inlets, and narrow river sections to continuously watch the water surface. Intelligent analysis identifies abnormal floating debris clusters and large objects, distinguishes them from normal waves or reflections, and automatically pushes alarms with snapshots and live video to the operation center. Teams can then dispatch cleaning crews or crane boats to remove blockages in time, reducing flood risk, preventing equipment damage, and improving the overall cleanliness and safety of urban waterways.
Application Topology & Advantages
- Continuous radar–vision tracking of floating objects
- Early obstruction alarms with visual evidence
- Protecting structures and ensuring safe operation
