A measured powder dispenser has a hopper feeding powder down into a measured dispensing mechanism. The measured dispensing mechanism has an inlet and an outlet and a measuring container operable therebetween. The measuring container is rotatably engaged about a rotation axis generally orthogonal to an inlet axis of the inlet such that an exterior surface thereof moves across the inlet when the measuring container rotates. The measuring container has an interior volume adjustable measurement chamber recessed within the exterior surface such that, in use, at a first rotational position, the measurement chamber aligns with the inlet to accept a measured amount of powder therein from the power container and, when rotated to a second rotational position, the exterior surface seals across the inlet and the measurement chamber aligns with the outlet to dispense the measured amount of powder therefrom.

A meter roller for an agricultural metering system includes multiple flutes and corresponding recesses. The flutes and the corresponding recesses are configured to meter flowable particulate material from a storage tank to a material distribution system via rotation of the meter roller. The meter roller also includes multiple air passages formed within a body of the meter roller. Each air passage is fluidly coupled to a central cavity of the meter roller and extends to a base of a respective recess, and the air passage is configured to flow air from the central cavity into the respective recess.

A powder feeder for a cold spray system includes a rotatable drum body, a housing surrounding the drum body, and a support structure. The support structure couples to the housing and supports the housing such that the drum body rotates about a rotation axis to provide in-situ blending of powder disposed within an interior of the drum body.

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 metering device includes a storage tank, a funnel, a feeder, at least one measuring container, a first driver, and a second driver. Liquid and string-shaped foods are sent from the storage tank to the funnel by the feeder. The measuring container is provided under the funnel in a measuring position, and volumetrically meters the string-shaped foods sent from the funnel while ejecting the liquid. The first driver moves the funnel or the measuring container to insert the funnel into the measuring container at a time of metering, and moves the funnel or the measuring container to separate the funnel from the measuring container after metering is completed. The second driver moves the measuring container from the measuring position to an ejecting position.
