INTERFACING A VEHICLE WITH A FOG DEVICE DURING FUELING
In one embodiment, a fog computing-based fueling kiosk forms a fueling connection with a vehicle and a direct network connection between the kiosk and a gateway for a network of the vehicle. The fueling kiosk provides energy to the vehicle via the fueling connection and receives, via the network connection with the gateway for the network of the vehicle, operational data from the network of the vehicle, while providing the energy to the vehicle via the fueling connection. The fueling kiosk performs an analysis of the received operational data from the vehicle and provides a result of the performed analysis to a remote device.
System and method for controlling a ground speed of an agricultural sprayer
A system for controlling a ground speed of an agricultural sprayer includes a speed setting device for commanding a selected ground speed of the sprayer when operating within a speed-range mode associated with a ground speed range. The speed setting device is movable across a plurality of positions, with each position being associated with a different ground speed within the ground speed range. A maximum range speed of the ground speed range is lower than a maximum ground speed of the sprayer. As such, the system includes a speed override input device for commanding that the ground speed of the sprayer be increased to the maximum ground speed. When an override input is received from the speed override input device, the computing system controls the operation of a sprayer drive system to increase the ground speed of the sprayer from the selected ground speed to the maximum ground speed.
