Abstract: A method for testing a perception system is disclosed. The method includes detecting, by a processor, one or more objects in a composite image, the composite image including a first image and at least a portion of a second image. A first set of objects are detected in the first image. Further, the method includes comparing, by the processor, a second set of objects of the one or more objects detected in the portion of the second image with a set of previously detected objects in the portion of the second image. Furthermore, the method includes validating, the performance of the processor in the detection of the first set of objects in the first image by ensuring the second set of objects detected in the at least a portion of a second image matches the set of previously detected objects in the portion of the second image.

Abstract: A monitoring system for a machine having a bowl is provided. The monitoring system includes a perception sensor provided in association with the bowl of the machine. The perception sensor is configured to generate a signal indicative of a view of the bowl. The monitoring system also includes a controller coupled to the perception sensor. The controller is configured to receive the signal indicative of the view of the howl from the perception sensor. The controller is configured to determine a level of material within the bowl based on the received signal. The controller is configured to determine a current loading status of the bowl based on the determined level of the material. The controller is also configured to provide an indication of the current loading status.

Abstract: A work tool recognition system for a work tool coupled to a machine is provided. The system includes an image capturing assembly configured to capture an image feed of the work tool. A controller is communicably coupled to the image capturing assembly. The controller receives the image feed of the work tool from the image capturing assembly. The controller extracts a plurality of features of the work tool from the image feed. The controller classifies the extracted image and determine a confidence value. The controller estimates a size of the work tool. The controller estimates a position and an orientation of the work tool. The controller determines verification features of the work tool and compares the image feed of the work tool with a predetermined dataset based on the classification. The controller identifies a type of the work tool based on the comparison.
