ROBOT BLADE TILT DETERMINATION BY EVALUATING GRAYSCALE IN IMAGES

A transportation monitoring method is provided, including the following steps. A monitoring image of a robot blade outside a carrier is captured from a fixed field of view by an image capturing device. The robot blade is configured to move an item into or out of the carrier. Next, a sampling area is obtained from the monitoring image by a processing device. Also, a tilting state of the robot blade is determined according to the sampling area by the processing device. When the processing device determines that the robot blade is tilted, the processing device sends a warning signal. A transportation monitoring system is also provided.
