Abstract
A system for detecting truck damage is disclosed. The system includes a work machine that has a detection unit located on the work machine. The detection unit is used to generate a first image data and a second image data of a loading area of a truck. A controller of the system is used to receive the first image data, generate a 3D objected from the first image data, and receive the second image data that is generated later in time that the first image data. After receiving the second image data, the controller updates the 3D object and detects any indication of damage between the generating of the first image data and the second image data to the loading area.
