  • Publication number: 20240196778
    Abstract: A system and a method for controlling an agricultural vehicle includes receiving sensor information for the agricultural vehicle from one or more sensors, determining a change in a state of the agricultural vehicle based on the sensor information, determining a change in a physical parameter of the agricultural vehicle based on the change in the state of the agricultural vehicle, updating an auto-guidance controller for the agricultural vehicle based on the change in the physical parameter of the agricultural vehicle, and controlling an operation of the agricultural vehicle based on the updated auto-guidance controller.

  • Publication number: 20210168991
    Abstract: A system for controlling a direction of travel of a work vehicle may include a location sensor configured to capture data indicative of a location of the vehicle within a field across which the vehicle is traveling. A controller of the system may be configured to determine the location of the vehicle within the field based on the data captured by the location sensor. Furthermore, the controller may be configured to determine a centerline adjustment value based on a field map associated with the field and the determined location of the vehicle. Moreover, the controller may be configured to adjust a position of a guidance line defined between first and second crop rows within the field such that the guidance line is offset from a centerline between the first and second crop rows by the centerline adjustment value.

  • Publication number: 20210173410
    Abstract: A system for controlling a direction of travel of a work vehicle may include a location sensor configured to capture data indicative of a location of the work vehicle within a field. A controller of the disclosed system may be configured to receive an input indicative of the vehicle being positioned at a starting point associated with a guide crop row present within the field. After receiving the input, the controller may be configured to determine the location of the guide crop row within the field based on the data captured by the location sensor. Furthermore, the controller may be configured to compare the determined location of the guide crop row and a location of a selected crop row depicted in a field map to determine an initial location differential. In addition, the controller may be configured to adjust the field map based on the determined initial location differential.
