Abstract
A monitoring system for a work machine includes at least one imaging device disposed on the work machine and at least one mounting device that support the at least one imaging device. The at least one mounting device includes at least one sensor that generates an input signal indicative of a current orientation of the mounting device. The monitoring system further includes a controller including one or more memories and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to receive the input signal from the sensor, determine a location of the imaging device on the work machine and a field of view of the imaging device, determine a presence of blind spots around the work machine, and generate a pictorial view depicting the blind spots around the work machine. The monitoring system further includes a user interface that displays the pictorial view thereon.
