Embodiment Construction

[0048] The present invention proposes a method by which a remote user collects relevant data and provides instructions and guidance to a local engineer at the location of an industrial plant in which a process control system operates.

[0049] figure 1 An industrial plant in which the process control system 10 is provided is schematically shown. Process control system 10 is a computerized process control system for controlling industrial processes. Processes can be any type of industrial process, such as electrical power generation, transmission and distribution processes, and water purification and distribution processes, oil and gas production and distribution processes, petrochemical, chemical, pharmaceutical and food processes, and pulp and paper production processes. These are just some examples of procedures in which the system can be applied. There are countless other industrial processes as well. Processes can also be other types of industrial processes, such as the...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method, a computer program product and a video communication device (32) for transmitting video to a remote user. The video communication device (32) includes: a communication interface for providing a communication session with the remote user's device; a camera for capturing images; and a control unit configured to acquire a three-dimensional model of the site location and control the camera A video image (VI) of the location is captured, a current orientation of the video communication device is determined, and the three-dimensional model (OI) and orientation are transmitted to the remote user's device along with a video stream from the camera comprising the captured video image.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to process control systems. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method, computer program product and video communication device for transmitting video from an industrial site operating a process control system to a remote user. Background technique [0002] In process control systems, it is very important to keep production running at all times because even a slight interruption in production can cost a lot of money. Because of this, maintenance is considered very important in order to keep production going as well. [0003] A useful tool provided for local maintenance in process control systems is described in SE1300138. [0004] Maintenance can be very expensive, as external experts must sometimes be called in to help with advanced operations that ordinary people do not have the expertise to handle on their own. [0005] Collaboration between a local worker and an expert over a telephone li...
