Abstract: A controller may monitor sensor data collected by one or more sensors of a machine while the machine is operating at a worksite. The controller may determine whether the sensor data is indicative of the machine operating in an unsafe condition at a location of the machine at the worksite. The controller may cause, based on a determination that the sensor data is indicative of the machine operating in the unsafe condition, at least one of: storing of the sensor data relating to the machine operating in the unsafe condition at least until the sensor data relating to the machine operating in the unsafe condition is offboarded from the machine, or transmission of the sensor data relating to the machine operating in the unsafe condition offboard the machine.

Abstract: A method for controlling a construction machine can include dividing a work area into a plurality of work lanes; selecting a first set of consecutive work lanes of the plurality of work lanes that can be worked without an obstruction; and completing one or more passes on the selected first set of consecutive work lanes before moving on to another set of the plurality of work lanes.

Abstract: A work machine may include a source of electrical power, a ground engaging traction system, and an implement for performing work. The work machine may also include one or more motors operable to use the electrical power from the power source to operate the ground engaging traction system to cause the work machine to travel along the ground and operable to use the electrical power from the power source to operate the implement. The work machine may also include a reserve power component configured to receive a reserve power amount from a user or automatically determine the reserve power amount, compare an available power amount to the reserve power amount to establish a comparison, and issue alerts or impart controls on operation of the work machine based on the comparison.

Abstract: A control system for a compactor is disclosed. The control system can include any one or combination of one or more position sensors, a steering system, a control interface and a controller. The controller can be in communication with at least the control interface and the one or more position sensors. The controller can be configured to receive data recording a position of the compactor when physically operating the compactor along at least a portion of the desired boundary of a compaction area, determine from the data a virtual boundary of the compaction area corresponding to the position of the compactor when physically operating the compactor along the desired boundary of the compaction area, and generate at least a first work plan for operating the compactor to compact in the compaction area up to the virtual boundary.

Abstract: A working machine includes one or more batteries driving movement of the working machine within a work area. The working machine includes a controller configured to receive criteria relating to one or more operational characteristics of the working machine and determine one of a plurality of operation modes for the working machine based upon the criteria and a remaining charge of one or more batteries.

Abstract: An autonomous stability control system may include a sensing system configured to collect position and orientation data about a work machine on a construction site and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive or generate a work path plan, operate the work machine according to the work path plan, continually or periodically monitor the orientation data from the sensing system, compare the orientation data to a vibration slope threshold, and, when the orientation data exceeds the vibration slope threshold, deactivate a vibration system of the work machine.

Abstract: Various control systems and methods for a working machine such as a compactor are disclosed. The control system can include any one or combination of components including a controller in communication with at least a steering system and a position sensor. The controller can be configured to: receive position data from the position sensor including during operator implemented steering of the compactor, save the position data to a memory, determine from the position data saved in the memory a possible intent by an operator to create a compaction area, generate a prompt on an operator interface to confirm an actual intent of the operator, and generate a compaction plan for autonomously steering the compactor to compact in the compaction area. The compaction plan can be based at least partially upon the operator implemented steering of the compactor. The controller can implement the compaction plan via autonomous steering.
