  • Patent number: 11993209
    Abstract: A multi-camera vision system is utilized onboard a work vehicle having an operator cabin and an apparatus associated with performance of a work task. The system includes: one or more display devices defining a plurality of display areas and a plurality of cameras carried by the work vehicle and coupled to display feeds at the display areas. A first camera of the cameras is oriented to selectively provide a first selected feed of at least a portion of the apparatus during performance of the work task. A controller is configured to display the first selected feed of the selected feeds with an insert, overlay, or icon that indicates the origin and orientation of the first camera as the first selected feed depicts performance of the work task by the apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20230406211
    Abstract: A work vehicle has display devices and cameras coupled to display feeds at display areas. The cameras include a first set on the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV and a second set on a first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV. A control system is configured to: in a first mode, display a first set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV; and in a second mode, display a second set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the second set at display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV.

  • Publication number: 20220311974
    Abstract: A work vehicle fleet includes a first model of work vehicle and a second model of work vehicle, different than the first model. The first model includes a first set of display devices; a first set of cameras; and a first controller configured to display a standard set of feeds from the associated first side, second side, and central location of the first set of cameras at the first set of display devices so that the associated feeds are arranged at the first side, the second side, and the central location, respectively, relative to the first operator FOV. The second model includes a second set of display devices; a second set of cameras; and a second controller configured to display so that the associated feeds are arranged at the first side, the second side, and the central location, respectively, relative to the second operator FOV.
