Systems and methods for monitoring a movable barrier

1. A system for monitoring a region of interest (“ROI”) with respect to a movable barrier operated by a movable barrier operator, the system comprising:

a camera configured to capture a plurality of frames, the camera having a field of view (“FOV”) that defines a boundary of each of the plurality of frames;

a control circuit configured to be communicatively coupled to the camera and to the movable barrier operator, wherein the control circuit is configured to:

receive a first frame of the plurality of frames from the camera;

identify a stationary object in the first frame;

define a ROI relative to the stationary object in the first frame;

receive a second frame of the plurality of frames from the camera;

identify the stationary object in the second frame;

determine whether at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object is outside of the second frame; and

cause the movable barrier operator to enter a failsafe mode upon the at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object being outside of the second frame.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:

identify, based on the first frame, a location of the stationary object within the first frame;

identify, based on the second frame, a location of the stationary object within the second frame; and

wherein the determination of whether the at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object is outside of the second frame is based on a difference between the location of the stationary object within the first frame and the location of the stationary object within the second frame.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:

translate, based on the location of the stationary object within the first frame and the location of the stationary object within the second fame, the ROI between the first frame and the second frame.

4. The system of claim 3 , wherein translation of the ROI includes at least one of a linear translation and a rotational translation.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the stationary object is identified by at least one coordinate.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the at least a portion of the ROI is outside of the second frame includes determining that the at least a portion of the ROI is outside of the second frame upon the ROI being within a threshold distance of a boundary of the second frame.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is configured to cause the movable barrier operator to enter the failsafe mode which includes at least one of:

stopping the movable barrier;

opening the movable barrier; and

closing the movable barrier.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the control circuit is further configured to:

generate, based on causing the movable barrier operator to enter the failsafe mode, a notification, wherein the notification indicates that the failsafe mode has been entered; and

cause communication of the notification to a user device.

9. A method for monitoring a region of interest (“ROI”) with respect to a movable barrier operated by a movable barrier operator, the method comprising:

at control circuit:

receiving a first frame of a plurality of frames via a camera, the camera having a field of view (“FOV”) that defines a boundary of each of the plurality of frames;

identifying a stationary object in the first frame;

defining a ROI relative to the stationary object in the first frame;

receiving a second frame of the plurality of frames via the camera;

identifying the stationary object in the second frame;

determining whether at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object is outside of the second frame; and

causing the movable barrier operator to enter a failsafe mode upon the at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object being outside of the second frame.

10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

identifying, by the control circuit based on the first frame, a location of the stationary object within the first frame;

identifying, by the control circuit based on the second frame, a location of the stationary object within the second frame; and

wherein the determining whether at least a portion of the ROI defined relative to the stationary object is outside of the second frame is based on the location of the stationary object within the first frame and the location of the stationary object within the second frame.

11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

translating, by the control circuit based on the location of the stationary object within the first frame and the location of the stationary object within the second frame, the ROI between the first frame and the second frame.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the translating includes at least one of a linear translation and a rotational translation.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the stationary object is identified by at least one coordinate.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the determining whether the at least a portion of the ROI is outside of the second frame includes determining the at least a portion of the ROI is outside of the second frame upon the ROI being within a threshold distance of a boundary of the second frame.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the causing the movable barrier operator to enter the failsafe mode includes at least one of:

stopping the movable barrier;

opening the movable barrier; and

closing the movable barrier.

16. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:

generating, upon causing the movable barrier operator to enter the failsafe mode, a notification by the control circuit, wherein the notification indicates that the failsafe mode has been entered; and

causing, by the control circuit, communication of the notification to a user device.
