Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring a condition of an operating implement in heavy equipment is disclosed. The method involves receiving a trigger signal indicating that the operating implement is within a field of view of an image sensor, and in response to receiving the trigger signal, causing the image sensor to capture at least one image of the operating implement. The method also involves processing the at least one image to determine the condition of the operating implement. A visual or audio warning or alarm may be generated for preventing significant damage to the processing equipment and avoid safety hazards involved.
