Abstract: Operation of a harvester and associated receiving vehicles is controlled and planned. Control signals can be generated to specify the quantity of associated receiving vehicles and receiving vehicle operators needed for one or more harvesting operations.

Abstract: An agricultural harvester has a frame and a spout that is mounted to the frame. A target landing point indicates a position in a receiving vehicle where material is intended to land. A control system detects an actual landing point and automatically controls the spout based on a difference between the actual landing point and the target landing point.

Abstract: A harvesting machine includes a header configured to gather harvested material into the harvesting machine during a harvesting operation, a conveyance subsystem configured to convey the harvested material from the harvesting machine to a receiving vehicle during the harvesting operation, an image capture system comprising at least one optical sensor, and a control system configured to determine a position of the receiving vehicle relative to the harvesting machine, determine an image magnification factor based on the determined position, and display, on a display device, an image of a portion of the receiving vehicle based on the image magnification factor.

Abstract: A camera captures an image of a portion of a cart and accesses stored maps that map visual features of carts to a set of settings that are applied to an automatic fill control system. A map that matches visual features of the cart, in the captured image, is identified and the settings in that map are applied to the automatic fill control system.

Abstract: A detector detects an overall fill level of a receiving vehicle. A mobile device on the receiving vehicle includes a mobile application that receives and displays the overall fill level of the receiving vehicle. The overall fill level can be overlaid on a geographic map that shows locations of multiple receiving vehicles, in which case an overall fill level indicator for each receiving vehicle is displayed on the geographic map as well.

Abstract: Provided is a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to obtain a first signal based on an input image using a trained machine learning model, the input image being an image of a plant cut by a blade, and the first signal indicating a wear level of the blade, determine whether a level of the first signal is greater than or equal to a threshold, generate a second signal in response to determining the level of the first signal is greater than or equal to the threshold, and output the second signal.

Abstract: A fill control system on a harvester detects that a receiving vehicle is to be repositioned relative to the harvester. The fill control system generates a signal indicative of how the receiving vehicle is to be repositioned relative to the harvester. The harvester sends the signal to a mobile device that is remote from the harvester. A mobile device receives an indication from a fill control system on a harvester that indicates how a receiving vehicle is to be repositioned relative to the harvester. The mobile device controls a user interface mechanism to generate an output indicating how the receiving vehicle is to be repositioned relative to the harvester.

Abstract: An automatic fill control system on a material loading vehicle generates an output indicative of a current fill level of a receiving vehicle into which the material loading vehicle is loading material. A fill level processing system generates a fill parameter indicative of when the receiving vehicle will reach a target capacity. The fill parameter is communicated to a mobile application on a mobile device in a receiving vehicle.

Abstract: A receiving vehicle is automatically identified and the number of times it is filled is automatically counted. Control signals can be generated based on the number of times the receiving vehicle is filled.

Abstract: A crop windrow monitoring system includes an image sensor positioned to include a field of view facing a rearward direction of a power unit, and a visual monitor operable to display an image. A computing device is operable to determine an intended direction of movement of the power unit. The image is displayed on the visual monitor in a first mode having a first magnification when the intended direction of movement includes the rearward direction. The image is displayed on the visual monitor in a second mode having a second magnification and overlaid with indicia indicating a width of the windrow when the intended direction of movement includes the forward direction. The second magnification may be larger than the first magnification.

Abstract: An agricultural harvester has a frame and a spout that is mounted to the frame. A display shows a representation of harvested crop in a receiving vessel. A control system detects an operator input selecting a portion of the receiving vessel and automatically controls a fill control system to being filling the receiving vessel, at the selected portions of the receiving vessel, with harvested material.

Abstract: An agricultural harvester has a frame and a spout that is movably mounted relative to the frame. A spout actuator drives movement of the spout relative to the frame based on a spout actuator control signal. Harvesting functionality engages material from a field and delivers the material through an outlet end of the spout as the agricultural harvester moves through the field in a direction of travel. A turn identifier identifies a location of a turn forward of the agricultural harvester in the direction of travel and generates a turn location indicator indicative of the location of the turn. A speed detector detects a speed of the agricultural harvester and generates a speed indicator indicative of the detected speed.

Abstract: A sensor detects a variable indicative of a position of a receiving vehicle relative to a harvester during a harvester operation in which a material conveyance subsystem on the harvester is conveying harvested material to the receiving vehicle. If the receiving vehicle is in a compromised position in which it is out of range of the material conveyance subsystem or is about to be out of range, then a control signal is generated that can alert the operator of the harvester, automatically control harvester speed, or perform other control operations.
