Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a cab, a body assembly coupled with the chassis, and a lift assembly. The body assembly defines a refuse compartment. The lift assembly can be configured to engage a refuse container. The refuse vehicle further comprises a heating, ventilation, or air conditioning (HVAC) system that is configured to deliver air to the cab via a plurality of ducts. The refuse vehicle further includes a controller configured to receive data from one or more sensors, determine, based on the received data, that an interlock condition is present, and alter an operation of the HVAC system based on the interlock condition.

Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a chassis coupled a wheel, a motor configured to drive the wheel, a body assembly coupled to the chassis and defining a refuse compartment, a lift assembly, and a vehicle control system having a sensor integrated into the body assembly and a controller in communication with the lift assembly and the sensor. The controller includes a processor and at least one memory and is configured to receive sensor data from the sensor, the sensor data indicating a potential event, receive control data indicating a state the lift assembly, and compare the sensor data to the control data to determine if the potential event is a false event associated with the state of the lift assembly or an actual event.
