Abstract
Aspects of camera-based pallet placement detection and notification are described. An image is captured using a camera device. The image includes a pallet placement region within a field of view of a camera device. A pallet placement is detected by determining at least one orthogonal intersection between a plurality of position lines identified from the image. A user interface provides the detected pallet position to facilitate corrective measures.
