Abstract: A vehicle may be configured to recognize a material pile and locate the material pile within a physical environment. The vehicle may also determine various characteristics or properties associated with the material pile and, based on the determined characteristics, define one or more tasks associated with spreading the material over a defined region according to defined spreading parameters.
Abstract: Generation and assignment of tasks based on a pre-generated and updateable mission may be utilized to reduce risk and dangers associated with allowing multiple autonomous vehicles to operate within a site. In some cases, the site may be divided into sub-regions with particular vehicles assigned, paths and segments as horizontal divisions of the sub-region and layers as vertical division of the sub-region. The vehicles may then be assigned to a perform operations related to tasks associated with a sub-region, path or segment, and layer.
Abstract: A system configured to be mounted to a vehicle including a skid-based steering system. The system including a control unit for determining course correction to the vehicle during operation based on a navigation path received from a remote device and data associated with the movement of the vehicle collected by the system.

Abstract: A system configured to be mounted to a vehicle for adjusting a position of an implement during an autonomous operation being performed by the vehicle. For example, the vehicle may monitor a height, slope angle, and/or load of an implement during an operation and adjust one or more parameters associated with the implement to achieve a desired finishing profile.
Abstract: A system configured to be mounted to a vehicle including an implement. The system may be configured to determine positions, coordinates, rotation angles (pitch, roll, and yaw), and slopes that may be utilized for autonomous control of the vehicle and the implement. In some cases, the sensor system may include a combination of one or more global positioning sensors mounted on top of a vehicle cab, at least one measurement unit mounted on the implement, and/or additional measurement units mounted on the vehicle body to collect data associated with the movement of the vehicle and implement.
