    Abstract: A sound monitoring system for collecting and processing an environmental noise level surrounding a work machine is disclosed. The sound monitoring system may include an acoustic sensor having a plurality of microphones arranged into a signal detection array to capture the environmental noise level and generate an acoustic output signal. Additionally, the sound monitoring system may include a controller communicably coupled to the acoustic sensor and programmed to perform a signal processing to identify a first portion and a second portion of the acoustic output signal. Furthermore, the controller may be programmed to generate a controller output signal based on the first and second portions of the output level. A speaker may be located on the work machine and communicably coupled to the controller such that the speaker receives and emits the controller output signal.

    Abstract: A kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) for a machine having a swing motor and/or an actuator includes a hydraulic motor/pump that can output pressurized fluid for operating at least one of: the swing motor and the actuator. A first shaft of the hydraulic motor/pump can be rotated by fluid returning from at least one of: the swing motor and the actuator back to the hydraulic motor/pump. Further, the KERS also includes a flywheel that can selectively couple with the first shaft with the help of a first clutch. The flywheel stores drive power generated by the hydraulic motor/pump from the return flow of fluid when the first clutch couples the flywheel with the first shaft of the hydraulic motor/pump. A gearing arrangement is coupled to the flywheel and can selectively engage with a second shaft associated with a prime mover of the machine with the help of a second clutch.

    Abstract: A method of using sensor feedback for controlling fluid pressures in a machine includes receiving signals from each of a plurality of Inertial Measurement Units (IMU's) mounted on different components of the machine, receiving a signal from at least one non-IMU sensor, fusing the signals received from the IMU's with each other and with a signal from the at least one non-IMU sensor, determining best estimates of current output joint angles for each of the plurality of components of the machine with reference to a machine reference frame, solving a kinematic equation using the best estimates of current output joint angles for the components of the machine and structural design information characterizing the machine, and applying a determination from the solution of the kinematic equation in an implementation of a controlled adjustment to a fluid pressure supplied to a fluid actuation cylinder.
