Abstract: A surround view system for a machine is provided. The surround view system includes a plurality of image capturing devices generating image data of surroundings of the machine, and an object detection system for detecting an object in a target field of view of the machine and generating object position data corresponding to the object. The surround view system also includes an image processing system configured to generate an initial 3-dimensional composite surround view by projecting the image data on a virtual model corresponding to the machine. The virtual model has a 3-dimensional shape based on an initial calibration position data. The image processing system is also configured to modify the 3-dimensional shape of the virtual model based on the object position data, and generate an updated 3-dimensional composite surround view by projecting the image data on the virtual model having a modified 3-dimensional shape.

Abstract: A detachable gooseneck trailer (20) having a gooseneck (24) and a detachable trailer deck (22) utilizes a trailer attachment assembly (30) to draw the trailer deck (22) toward the gooseneck (24) during attachment. The attachment assembly (30) includes a pivoting carrier (66) having a retainer leg (84) with a rearward facing load carrier engagement surface (90). A slide member (68) is attached to the trailer deck (22) and provides a forward facing slide member engagement surface (94). As actuators (70) pivot the carrier (66) rearward, the load carrier engagement surface (90) slides over the slide member engagement surface (94). A latching mechanism (34) utilizes an elongated latch plate (122) pivotally mounted on the retainer leg (84) to automatically latch the carrier (66) to the trailer deck (22). A latch biasing spring (124) biases the latch plate (122) toward its latched position, so that it automatically engages a catch (126) mounted on the trailer deck.
