摘要： A system for determining vehicle location information includes a receiver supported on a first vehicle for receiving a communication from a second vehicle and a signal from each of a plurality of satellites. A detector is configured to detect a positional relationship between the first vehicle and the second vehicle. A processor is configured to determine a location of the first vehicle from received satellite signals, a location of the second vehicle based on the communication received from the second vehicle, a corrected location of the first vehicle based on the location of the second vehicle and the positional relationship between the vehicles, and a corrective mapping of a plurality of sections of a field of view of the receiver. Each section has ad correction factor for correcting a subsequently determined location of the first vehicle based on satellite signals received from satellites appearing in the respective sections.

摘要： Systems and techniques are described for implementing autonomous control of earth-moving construction and/or mining vehicles, including to automatically determine and control autonomous movement (e.g., of a vehicle's hydraulic arm(s), tool attachment(s), tracks/wheels, rotatable chassis, etc.) to move materials or perform other actions based at least in part on data about an environment around the vehicle(s). A perception system on a vehicle that includes at least a LiDAR component may be used to repeatedly map a surrounding environment and determine a 3D point cloud with 3D data points reflecting the surrounding ground and nearby objects, with the LiDAR component mounted on a component part of the vehicle that is moved independently of the vehicle chassis to gather additional data about the environment. GPS data from receivers on the vehicle may further be used to calculate absolute locations of the 3D data points.

摘要： Systems and methods are discussed to direct an autonomous loader to a dump truck. In some embodiments, a method may include receiving dump truck geolocation data for a dump truck; receiving loader geolocation data for an autonomous loader; raising a bucket on the autonomous loader to a height; directing the autonomous loader toward the dump truck using the loader geolocation data and the dump truck geolocation data so that the bucket is positioned above a body or bed of the dump truck; and rotating the bucket downward to release a load in the bucket into the body or bed of dump truck.

摘要： An autonomous work vehicle including a positioning information obtaining unit including a GNSS receiver acquiring a position of the autonomous work vehicle, a driving unit including a motor, a memory storing position coordinates used to establish an entry avoidance zone, and a control unit including a processor. The control unit is configured to function as a zone entry judgement unit determining whether the autonomous work vehicle has approached the entry avoidance zone, and a zone entry validation unit determining whether the determination by the zone entry judgement unit that the autonomous work vehicle has approached the entry avoidance zone is valid. When the zone entry judgement unit determines that the autonomous work vehicle has approached the entry avoidance zone, and the zone entry validation unit determines that the determination by the zone entry judgement unit is valid, the control unit controls the autonomous work vehicle to perform an avoidance maneuver.

摘要： One or more information maps are obtained by an agricultural work machine. The one or more information maps map one or more agricultural characteristic values at different geographic locations of a field. An in-situ sensor on the agricultural work machine senses an agricultural characteristic as the agricultural work machine moves through the field. A predictive map generator generates a predictive map that predicts a predictive agricultural characteristic at different locations in the field based on a relationship between the values in the one or more information maps and the agricultural characteristic sensed by the in-situ sensor. The predictive map can be output and used in automated machine control.

摘要： A mower slope sensing system on a grass mowing machine. An elevation sensor may capture terrain elevation values for each of a plurality of different locations according to a latitude and a longitude of each of the locations on a field. An electronic controller may store the terrain elevation values, latitudes and longitudes, and adjust a mowing blade speed depending on changes in the terrain elevation values from a current location to a next expected location.

摘要： An autonomous vehicle configured to perform a lane change maneuver is described herein. The autonomous vehicle includes several different types of sensor systems, such as image, lidar, radar, sonar, infrared, and GPS. The autonomous vehicle additionally includes a computing system that executes instructions on a lane change detection system and a control system. The lane change detection system includes a region of interest module and an object trajectory module for determining whether the autonomous vehicle will collide with another object if the autonomous vehicle maneuvers into an adjacent lane. An instruction module of the lane change detection system is further used to facilitate operational control of a mechanical system of the autonomous vehicle, such as an engine or a steering system.

摘要： A first monocular image and a second monocular image are captured from a vehicle. The first monocular image is from a first vantage point and contains a subject at a location. The second monocular is from a second vantage point, different than the first vantage point, and contains the subject at the location. A first initial estimate of coordinates of the location is determined based upon the first monocular image. A second initial estimate of coordinates of the location is determined based upon the second monocular image. A final estimate of coordinates of the location is determined based upon the first initial estimate, the second initial estimate and a distance between the first vantage point and the second vantage point.
