Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus are provided for determining the amount of obstruction of a view of a satellite. An estimated satellite location from a satellite signal is mapped to a matrix of obstructions. A window is determined around the satellite location and all the obstructions within the window are considered in determining whether the satellite is obstructed, with the window considering the degree of possible error within the various measurements. In embodiments, the window size if varied based on the estimated amount of error and location of the satellite within the matrix.

Abstract: Construction vehicles using a teach and repeat system can ascertain boundaries of a task area while working, without knowing a perimeter of the task area before starting the task. The system maps a first path of the vehicle by recording a position of a vehicle moving from a first start position to a first end position. A second path is predicted, based on a shape of the first path, the second path having a second start position and a second end position. A third path is mapped from a third start position to a third end position. Boundaries of the task area are ascertained based on the first path, the first start position, the second start position, the third start position, the third path, the first end position, the second end position, and the third end position.

Abstract: Described herein is a visual indication system implemented on a mobile machine. The visual indication system at least partially surrounds the mobile machine and includes a plurality of displayable regions. Objects surrounding the mobile machine are detected using an object detection sensor. A direction with respect to the mobile machine is detected for each of the objects. A current state of the mobile machine is determined. An object-directed indicator for each of the objects is generated based on the current state of the mobile machine. The object-directed indicator for each of the objects is displayed on the visual indication system at a particular displayable region based on the direction of the particular object.

Abstract: A device for determining coordinates of a location can include two GNSS receiver antennas positioned in fixed relation to each other and separated by a short baseline. Signals received from the two receiver antennas can be processed to estimate a degree to a multipath effect may be impairing reliability of observables extracted from the received signals. Where both antennas observe signals at the same carrier frequency from the same satellite, each antenna can determine a carrier phase, and a single-difference carrier phase (SDCP) can be computed and used to estimate multipath effects. Where both antennas observe signals at two (or more) carrier frequencies from the same satellite, a “geometry-free” SDCP can be computed and used to estimate multipath effects. Observations of different satellites can be weighted based on the estimated multipath effects.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide novel tools and techniques for photogrammetric machine measure-up, including without limitation solutions that can be used for excavation and similar applications. A system includes a machine, a user device may further comprise an image sensor, an accelerometer, a processor, and a computer readable medium in communication with the processor, the computer readable medium having encoded thereon a set of instructions executable by the processor to photogrammetrically measure-up the machine. Photogrammetric measure-up includes capturing, via the image sensor, two or more target images of each of the two or more targets, the two or more target images including a first target image and a second target image, and determining a measurement between two of the two or more reference features of the machine based on a first target image and second target image.

Abstract: A receiver system for determining coordinates of a location can include two GNSS receiver antennas positioned in fixed relation to each other and separated by a short baseline. Signals received from the two receiver antennas can be processed to define a “virtual” antenna located at the midpoint between the two receiver antennas. For instance, a location can be determined for each receiver antenna using GNSS-based techniques, and the locations of the two antennas can be used to determine a location of the virtual antenna. As another example, GNSS observables from the two antennas can be combined to provide a set of “virtual” observables for the virtual antenna, and GNSS-based techniques can be applied to the virtual observables to determine a location of the virtual antenna.
