    Abstract: A system includes a receiver mounted on a work machine, and a processor. The receiver receives a signal usable to identify a position of the work machine. The processor acquires a position of the receiver from the signal received by the receiver. The processor acquires a calculated position of a calibration point in the work machine by calculating a position of the calibration point from the position of the receiver. The processor acquires an actual position of the calibration point. The processor generates calibration data usable to calibrate a position of a reference point in the work machine by comparing the actual position with the calculated position of the calibration point.

    Abstract: Occurrence of a skid due to revolution of a revolving unit is suppressed. A work machine includes a traveling unit, a revolving unit revolvably mounted on the traveling unit, and a controller that controls operations of the work machine. The controller determines whether or not a skid of the traveling unit has occurred in a revolving operation of the revolving unit during an automatic operation of the work machine. When the controller determines that the skid has occurred, it performs processing for weakening rotational inertial force generated in the revolving operation.

    Abstract: A control system for a work includes an operating device and a controller. The operating device outputs an operation signal indicative of an operation by an operator. The controller is in communication with the operating device. The controller determines a target profile of a terrain to be worked on. The controller generates a command signal to operate the work implement according to the target profile. The controller receives the operation signal from the operating device. The controller determines an operation of the work implement based on the operation signal. The controller corrects the target profile according to the operation by the operator when the operation of the work implement by the operator is performed.

    Abstract: A control system for a work vehicle includes a sensor and a controller. The sensor outputs a signal indicating an actual traveling direction of the work vehicle. The controller communicates with the sensor. The controller is programmed so as to execute the following processing. The controller acquires the actual traveling direction of the work vehicle. The controller sets the actual traveling direction as a target traveling direction when a condition that indicates that the work vehicle has started straight travel has been met. The controller calculates a bearing difference between the target traveling direction and the actual traveling direction. The controller moves the work implement at a target tilt angle corresponding to the bearing difference so as to reduce the bearing difference.

    Abstract: A system controls a work machine that loads materials onto a conveyance vehicle. The system includes a controller and a detection device. The controller controls the work machine in an automatic control mode in which work is performed automatically. The detection device detects an approach of the conveyance vehicle toward the work machine. The automatic control mode includes a loading mode in which the work machine is caused to move to perform loading work for loading onto the conveyance vehicle, and an other mode other than the loading mode. The other mode includes at least one of a mode for gathering fallen materials and a digging mode for further increasing the materials by digging. The controller causes the automatic control mode to transition from the other mode to the loading mode when the approach of the conveyance vehicle is detected.

    Abstract: A system includes a work machine, a camera, and a processor. The camera captures an image including a periphery of the work machine. A processor acquires image data indicative of a captured image captured by a camera. The processor acquires, from image data, a specific object present within the captured image and a distance from the work machine to the specific object by performing image analysis using an object detection model. The object detection model is trained an image of the specific object and the distance to the specific object. The processor controls the work machine based on the distance from the work machine to the specific object when the specific object is detected in the captured image.
