Abstract
An outboard engine unit for a marine vessel may, in addition to including an engine and a thrust unit, be outfitted with one or more perception sensors configured to capture images of a field of view, where the field of view maintains a fixed spatial relationship with the thrust direction in which the thrust unit is providing thrust for the marine vessel. Further, the outboard engine unit may further include an orientation sensor configured to sense the orientation of the thrust direction relative to the vessel.
