  • Patent number: 10830634
    Abstract: Dynamic change information is detected on a vehicle, that is transporting a load receiving structure. The dynamic operational information is monitored to identify a period of dynamic change in the operation of the vehicle. The period of dynamic change is used to define a sampling window. The dynamic operational information, during the sampling window, is provided to fill level classifier logic that identifies a fill level corresponding to the dynamic operational information. A fill level metric, indicative of the identified fill level, is generated, and an action signal is generated based upon the fill level metric.

  • Publication number: 20200337235
    Abstract: A method for mapping sugarcane crop yield, the method comprising: receiving signals during a harvesting operation from a yield sensor, which senses a yield characteristic of a harvested sugarcane crop, and a processing sensor, which senses a processing characteristic of the sugarcane crop and is associated with the sugarcane harvester; determining a measured sugarcane crop yield using the received signals; determining a calibrated sugarcane crop yield using at least the measured sugarcane crop yield; and generating a sugarcane crop yield map with the calibrated sugarcane crop yield and a georeferenced location of the sugarcane crop yield associated with the location of the sugarcane harvester during the harvest.
