Abstract: A method of detecting steering wheel angle instability in an auto-guided vehicle includes measuring a steering wheel angle at a plurality of time instances within a pre-determined time window to obtain an array of values of the steering wheel angle, performing a frequency analysis of the array of values of the steering wheel angle to obtain a frequency spectrum of the steering wheel angle, comparing the frequency spectrum of the steering wheel angle to a pre-defined threshold frequency spectrum to determine whether a magnitude of the frequency spectrum of the steering wheel angle at any frequency exceeds a magnitude of the threshold frequency spectrum, and upon determining that a magnitude of the frequency spectrum of the steering wheel angle at one or more frequencies exceeds a magnitude of the pre-defined threshold frequency spectrum, determining that a steering wheel angle instability is present.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide novel tools and techniques for position and/or motion tracking, including without limitation solutions that can be used for excavation and similar applications. In a particular aspect of some embodiments, a communication device with a camera may be provided to track the position and motion of a stick of an excavator or reference features located on a stick of an excavator. A location of a bucket of an excavator may then be calculated relative to the stick or reference features on the stick of the excavator. Thus, an operator of the excavator can use the communication device to effectively and efficiently track the location of the excavator bucket without the need for a second person to provide instructions about the location of the bucket.

Abstract: Embodiments describe systems and methods for tracking produce with an electronic device. A method includes, during each of a plurality of instances of time, receiving one or more clam codes, receiving a tray code, associating the one or more claim codes with the tray code, receiving a palette code, associating the palette code with the tray code, and storing the one or more clam codes, tray codes, and the palette code in a database. After associating the one or more clam codes with the tray code and the palette code with the tray code, the method includes receiving a request to identify the tray code or the palette code associated with a specific clam code, wherein the specific clam code is included in the one or more clam codes; and identifying the tray code or the palette code associated with the specific clam code.

Abstract: A system for providing manual guidance of a vehicle includes a first inertial measurement unit (IMU) attached to a steering wheel, a second IMU attached to a fixed part of the vehicle, a global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) receiver, a data storage device for storing a pre-planned path, and a feedback module. The feedback module is configured to determine a current angle of the steering wheel, determine a deviation of the current position of the vehicle from the pre-planned path, determine a current heading of the vehicle, determine a current velocity of the vehicle, and determine a desired angle of the steering wheel relative to the vehicle. The system further includes a user interface configured to provide a visual indication of the desired angle of the steering wheel or a deviation of the current angle of the steering wheel from the desired angle of the steering wheel.

Abstract: A method for displaying images using an AR device. GNSS position data is received based on wireless signals received from a GNSS satellite. Based on the GNSS position data, a first GNSS point within a geospatial frame is determined within a first time range and a second GNSS point within the geospatial frame is determined within a second time range. Based on camera POS data, a first AR point within an AR frame is determined within the first time range and a second AR point within the AR frame is determined within the second time range. One of the frames is shifted such that the second GNSS point is aligned with the second AR point. An angle formed by the GNSS points and the AR points is calculated. One of the frames is rotated by the angle.

Abstract: A method for reporting as-built data of a project is disclosed. In one embodiment, at least one attribute of a task perform by a handheld tool is recorded at the handheld tool. The attribute of the at least one task is reported via a wireless communication link to an information management system. The at least one attribute of the task is used to update a record of a project stored at the information management system.

Abstract: A correction message for regional GNSS data includes at least one network message and at least one cluster message. The at least one network message relates to stations of a network of stations within a region. The at least one cluster message relates to a subset of stations within the region. Network elements are extracted from the network message and cluster elements are extracted from the cluster message. Network elements and cluster elements are used to determine a position of a rover within the region.

Abstract: Multiple cameras are used for tool positioning, as-built documentation, and/or personnel monitoring in construction site. A camera unit comprises one or more imaging devices, a processing computer, and a communication device. The camera units are placed at multiple locations in a construction site to cover an area. The camera units are self-positioned by detecting a calibration target that moves within a working volume. The camera units can detect and calculate positions of objects, including measurement sticks, tools, personnel, etc., in the area.
