The invention relates to an automotive construction machine, in particular a road milling machine, recycler or surface miner, and to a method for displaying an image of the surroundings of an automotive construction machine. The construction machine according to the invention has an image display device for displaying a bird's eye view image of the surroundings of the construction machine, which image display device has a camera system with a plurality of cameras provided on the machine frame for recording individual overlapping image regions of the construction machine surroundings from different image recording positions, and an image processing system. The image processing system is configured in such a way that image details of the individual image regions are joined together to form a total image from a bird's eye view. For this purpose, the construction machine has a position detection device, which detects the height and/or the incline of the machine frame in relation to the ground surface and cooperates with the position detection device in such a way that when the image details of the individual image regions are joined together to form a total image from a bird's eye view, the course of the stitching which is located between the image details and within the overlapping regions of the image regions is determined depending on the height and/or the incline of the machine frame in relation to the ground surface.

Device and method for providing a vehicle surround view

Device and method for providing a vehicle surround view for a vehicle, which is located on a driving plane, comprising vehicle cameras, which provide camera images of a vehicle environment of the vehicle, a location-detection unit, which detects a change in location of at least one vehicle camera relative to the driving plane of the vehicle, and comprising an image data processing unit which projects the camera images provided by the vehicle cameras onto a projection surface to generate the vehicle surround view, which projection surface is adapted according to the detected change in location of the vehicle camera.

Variable engine speed control

Power machines, control systems and methods that adjust engine speed based upon actuation of user input controls that control other power machine functions such as travel functions and lift arm functions. By controlling engine speed at least partially in response to the user input devices controlling other machine functions, more optimal engine speeds can be achieved.

Display system for machine

A display system for displaying image data of an environment of a machine includes a display screen and a plurality of imaging devices communicably coupled to the display screen. Each of the plurality of imaging devices generates image data of the environment of the machine and has an associated operating parameter. The plurality of imaging devices stores the image data in an uncompressed form. The plurality of imaging devices compresses the image data and generates signals indicative of the compressed image data. The plurality of imaging devices receives the operating parameter associated with at least one another imaging device. The plurality of imaging devices transmits the compressed image data to the display screen based on the associated operating parameter and the received parameter of the at least one another imaging device. The plurality of imaging devices displays an image on the display screen based on the transmitted image data.

SYSTEM FOR REPOSITIONING A BACKHOE DIGGER

A control system for a work vehicle, includes a controller. The controller includes a processor a memory device communicatively coupled to the processor, such that the memory device stores instructions that cause the processor to receive a first control signal indicative of performing relocation operations.
