  • Patent number: 11952746
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for implementing autonomous control of powered earth-moving vehicles, including to automatically determine and control movement around a site having potential obstacles. For example, the systems/techniques may determine and implement autonomous operations of powered earth-moving vehicle(s) (e.g., obtain/integrate data from sensors of multiple types on a powered earth-moving vehicle, and use it to determine and control movement of the powered earth-moving vehicle around a site), including in some situations to implement coordinated actions of multiple powered earth-moving vehicles and/or of a powered earth-moving vehicle with one or more other types of construction vehicles.

  • Patent number: 11898324
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for an adaptive control system of powered earth-moving construction and/or mining vehicles. In some situations, the systems/techniques may receive signals from various controls of the powered earth-moving construction and/or mining vehicles that provide signals at various high-level voltages and low-level voltages and provide commands to the various controls by modifying command signals to various high-level voltages and low-level voltages. The systems/techniques may employ various modular input/output daughtercards to modify the various signals and commands.

  • Patent number: 11746499
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for implementing autonomous control of powered earth-moving vehicles (e.g., construction and/or mining vehicles), including to automatically determine and control movement around a site. For example, the systems/techniques may determine and implement autonomous operations of earth-moving vehicles by determining current location and positioning of an earth-moving vehicle on the site, determining a command for the earth-moving vehicle, and causing the earth-moving vehicle to perform the command—the autonomous operations may in some situations further include obtaining and integrating data from sensors of multiple types on the earth-moving vehicle, implementing coordinated actions of multiple earth-moving vehicles of one or more types, etc.
