In accordance with an example embodiment, an agricultural work vehicle includes a propulsion system for modifying vehicle speed, a harvesting system for harvesting crop, a perception system having at least one camera with a field of view of a forward zone in front of the vehicle, and a controller. The controller communicates with the propulsion, harvesting, and perception systems, and is configured to receive the perception signal, identify a harvest condition in the forward zone, adjust an operation setting of the propulsion system or harvesting system, and generate a forward-looking perception interface for a display screen. The forward-looking perception interface includes a forward zone area displaying the field of view and a status area displaying at least one harvest condition identified. The status area also displays a time and a sensitivity level associated with the at least one harvest condition identified.

A flow sensor of a domestic appliance has an axle that is substantially perpendicular in the installed state to the flow direction of a fluid channel of the domestic appliance. The bearing component is designed as a single part and has at least two interconnected limbs, each limb having an axle mount for one end of the axle of the flow sensor, wherein the two axle mounts are mutually spaced apart in such a way that they correspond in a relaxed condition of the bearing component to an extension of the axle of the flow sensor. The two limbs are designed to be elastic such that the spacing between the axle mounts can be increased in order to insert the flow sensor between the axle mounts.

The invention relates to an arrangement of a flow measuring device with a testing device. The flow measuring device comprises an inlet section and an outlet section. A rotor is arranged between the inlet section and the outlet section. The rotor is designed for a rotational movement in the event of a fluid flow between the inlet section and the outlet section. At least one indicator element is arranged on the rotor. The flow measuring device further comprises a measuring element, which is adapted to detect a movement of the indicator element. The indicator element comprises a magnetic material. The testing device is designed to set the rotor in rotational motion, preferably without contact. The invention further relates to a method for the functional testing of a flow measuring device.

There is described a fluid flow measuring and control device for installation within plumbing. The device comprises a main flow channelling system having an inlet and an outlet for connection to the plumbing, and a bypass channelling system in parallel from the main flow channelling system. A flowmeter is provided in the bypass channelling system for measuring the fluid flow in the bypass channelling system and thereby estimating the fluid flow at the inlet or at the outlet of the main flow channelling system. The flowmeter may comprise a wheel and a pair of movement sensors. A valve such as a solenoid valve can be provided as an on/off control for the plumbing. Using a microcontroller, the device can identify which appliance is used and determine consumption, or detect abnormal use or leaks and close the valve and/or notify a user mobile device.
