The disclosure is related to an aerial guidance system, comprising an imaging device and a processor. In some implementations, the processor is configured to process acquired images, and generate guidance paths. In some implementations the imaging device is a satellite, and the acquired images are stored on a centralized platform.

Various embodiments relate generally to computer vision and automation to autonomously identify and deliver for application a treatment to an object among other objects, data science and data analysis, including machine learning, deep learning, and other disciplines of computer-based artificial intelligence to facilitate identification and treatment of objects, and robotics and mobility technologies to navigate a delivery system, more specifically, to an agricultural delivery system configured to identify and apply, for example, an agricultural treatment to an identified agricultural object. In some examples, a method may include, receiving data representing a policy specifying a type of action for an agricultural object, selecting an emitter with which to perform a type of action for the agricultural object as one of one or more classified subsets, and configuring the agricultural projectile delivery system to activate an emitter to propel an agricultural projectile to intercept the agricultural object.

A method of working a field includes receiving a plurality of signals from satellites at a global positioning system (GPS) receiver carried by a tractor; determining a location within a field of the GPS receiver based on the signals from the satellites; and determining an orientation with respect to the tractor of an implement towed by the tractor. The implement includes a toolbar and a hitch, and the hitch is coupled to a drawbar of the tractor. The method further includes determining, based at least in part on the location of the GPS receiver and the orientation of the implement, a location within the field of at least one point on the implement in addition to a location of the hitch; and steering the tractor to direct the implement along a selected path previously traversed by another implement within the field.

A working vehicle includes a steering device to steer a vehicle body, a working device connected to the vehicle body, an automatic steering controller to perform automatic steering of the steering device based on a difference between a scheduled traveling line and a position of the vehicle body, and a parameter changer to change a control parameter of the automatic steering depending on the working device connected to the vehicle body.

Systems and methods for improving graphical displays of field data are described herein. In an embodiment, a system generates a plurality of data files by performing, for each data file of the plurality of data files: identifying a start condition; in response to identifying the start condition, generating a new data file; recording data of an apparatus moving through an agricultural field in the new data file, the data comprising locations of the apparatus during said recording; identifying a stop condition; and, in response to identifying the stop condition, storing the new data file. The system causes displaying a field map corresponding to the agricultural field through a graphical user interface. When the system receives input through the graphical user interface selecting multiple locations on the field map, the system identifies, for each selected location of the multiple locations, a corresponding data file of the plurality of data files and generates and displays through the graphical user interface, a geographic region comprising locations in the identified corresponding data files, the geographic region being bounded by locations in one or more of the identified corresponding data files. The system may further update the graphical user interface to include a data panel corresponding to the geographic region.

A method for estimation of relative coordinates between two parts of a linked vehicle system. The system includes a towing vehicle and a towed implement or trailer. A first sensor is configured to measure the movement rate of the towing vehicle while a second sensor is configured to measure the movement rate of the towed implement. Both sensors interact with each other to measure the absolute distance between sensors. Using the known linkage geometry, relative distance between the sensors and relative rotation rates, the relative coordinates between the towing vehicle and towed implement can be estimated.

A method of controlling a mower implement includes sensing a separation distance between the mower implement and an adjacent windrow with an outboard distance sensor. The sensed separation distance is then compared to a defined separation target. The computing device indicates that a course of the mower implement is on-target when the separation distance is approximately equal to the defined separation target. The computing device indicates that the course of the mower implement is drifting in a first direction when the separation distance is less than the defined separation target and greater than zero. An offset distance is sensed between the mower implement and a standing crop edge. The computing device indicates that the course of the mower implement is drifting in a second direction when both the separation distance and the offset distance are substantially equal to zero.

The turning radius of a differentially steered vehicle towing a trailer is controlled when turning so that its turning radius is greater than a minimum allowable turning radius. The turning radius may be autonomously adjusted using a controller to monitor the instantaneous rotational speed differential between the driven wheels and increase or decrease the relative speed between the wheels when the instantaneous rotational speed differential exceeds a threshold rotational speed differential, indicating a turn which is too tight. Alternately, the turning radius may be controlled by the vehicle's operator, who receives a signal from the controller indicating that the vehicle's turning radius is less than the minimum allowable. The operator may then take action to enlarge the turning radius using manual controls.

A work vehicle coordination system includes a traveling work parameter setting section (41) included in each work vehicle for setting a traveling work parameter to define a traveling work of each work vehicle, a communication processing section (71, 72) for effecting data communication between/among the plurality of work vehicles, a traveling work parameter acquisition section (42) for acquiring the traveling work parameter set in each work vehicle, a difference data generation section (43) for generating difference data indicative of a difference between/among the traveling work parameters set in the respective work vehicles, and an informing section (56) for informing the difference data.
