    Abstract: A control system for a machine traveling on a work surface is provided. The control system includes a perception system generating data indicative of a contour of the work surface. The control system includes a controller communicably coupled to the perception system. The controller receives a signal indicative of a current position of the machine on the work surface as the machine travels along a first direction. The controller initiates a scanning of the work surface by the perception system. The controller receives the signal indicative of the contour of the work surface from the perception system and identifies a raised contour and a contour edge within a target area on the work surface. The controller determines a location of the contour edge within the target area based on the identification and controls a positioning of the machine within the target area and relative to the raised contour.

    Abstract: A position identification system for use with a mobile machine at a worksite is disclosed. The system may include an integration module configured to integrate information from at least one motion sensor and at least one GPS receiver to generate a location signal indicative of an actual location of the mobile machine. A controller may be provided in communication with the at least one motion sensor, the at least one GPS receiver, and the integration module, the controller being configured to determine the reliability of information received from the at least one motion sensor, the at least one GPS receiver, and the integration module, and following a period of time from when received information is first determined to be unreliable, switching from determining the position of the mobile machine using information determined to be unreliable to determining the position of the mobile machine using dead reckoning from a last known good position of the mobile machine, a determined wheel speed of the mobile machine, and a steering command being provided to the mobile machine.

    Abstract: A method for controlling a mining truck travelling on a work site is disclosed. The method includes receiving payload information associated with a payload carried in a bed of the mining truck from sensors associated with the mining truck. The method further includes determining an imbalance of the payload based on the payload information. The method further includes receiving positioning data associated with the work site from a positioning system and determining an approaching terrain of the work site based on the positioning data. The method further includes planning a path for the mining truck based on the imbalance and the approaching terrain and controlling the mining truck based on the path.
