virtual light barriers
The virtual light sensors are based on a camera system and have the same function as light grids and light cur-tains. A virtual light barrier is defined by a line in the camera image with a start and a destination point. The colour value or the time course of colour value changes along this line are used to detect whether the line is interrupted by a person or an object. Thus, access to sensitive image information is avoided, preserving the privacy of the person.
