    Abstract: An apparatus and method is disclosed for controlling engagement of a power take-off (PTO) shaft (33) on a vehicle. The apparatus includes a clutch (18) including an input shaft (19) coupled to a power source (14) and an output shaft (32) coupled to the PTO shaft (33). The apparatus also includes an input sensor (56) for sensing a quantity related to the angular velocity of the input shaft (19), an output shaft speed sensor (56) for sensing angular velocity of the output shaft, and a clutch controller (20) for adjusting pressure of hydraulic fluid applied to the clutch (18) in response to control signals. Torque transmitted between the input shaft (19) and output shafts (32) is responsive to the control signals. The apparatus also includes a control circuit coupled to the speed sensors (56) and the clutch controller (20). The control circuit is configured to receive signals from the speed sensors (56) and to provide the control signals in response thereto. During engagement of the PTO shaft (33), the control circuit continuously determines an actual acceleration of the PTO shaft (33) based upon the output shaft velocity, and generates the control signals using a desired acceleration and the actual acceleration.

    Abstract: An improved seating and instrumentation arrangement for an off-road vehicle such as a tractor, combine or excavator is disclosed herein. The arrangement includes a seat (44) having an armrest attached thereto. Attached to the armrest is an electronic display (50) for displaying information to the vehicle operator. The armrest also includes control elements (48) which the operator manipulates to control vehicle and implement operation. The seat is moveable upon the vehicle to conform to a particular operator's positioning preferences, to respond to shock and vibrations and to permit the operator to rotate the seat to view vehicle components or operations which are substantially out of the line of sight of the operator when facing forward relative to the vehicle. This arrangement permits the operator to maintain visual contact with the electronic display and access to the control elements when the seat moves or is rotated from its normal (forward) operating position.

    Abstract: A multi-spectral imaging system (10) and method produces a vegetation image (78) for analysis of crop characteristics, such as nitrogen levels, from an area (12) having vegetation (14) and a non-vegetation (14) background. A light sensing unit (18) detects light reflected at multiple wavelengths. The image is segmented into images (70, 72, 74) at different wavelengths such as at the red, green, and near infrared wavelengths. The images are combined into a multi-spectral image (76) and segmented into a vegetation image by eliminating all non-vegetation images by using the images at two wavelengths. The vegetation image (78) is analyzed for nitrogen levels by calculating reflectance values at the green wavelength. The images may be stored for further analysis of crop characteristics.

Each section includes a product delivery apparatus having a target delivery rate controlled by a section application control signal and at least one product channel for delivering an amount of the product to each of the row units. The control unit includes an electronic product sensor coupled to each of the sections and the product channel. The product sensor is configured to generate a product rate signal representative of the amount of the product delivered to the row units. An electronic display located in the cab is configured to generate an image in response to a display signal. The display includes operator-actuatable switches configured to independently control the state of each of the sections and the target delivery rate of each product for each of the sections. A processor circuit is configured to monitor the product rate signal from each product sensor, to calculate product rate data for each product sensor, to generate and apply a display signal to the electronic display to generate the image on the display representing the product rate data for each product in each section, and to generate and apply the section application control signal to each product delivery apparatus in response to actuations of the switches on the electronic display.
