Abstract: A framework for safely operating autonomous machinery, such as vehicles and other heavy equipment, in an in-field or off-road environment, includes detecting, identifying, classifying and tracking objects and/or terrain characteristics from on-board sensors that capture images in front and around the autonomous machinery as it performs agricultural or other activities. The framework generates commands for navigational control of the autonomous machinery in response to perceived objects and terrain impacting safe operation. The framework processes image data and range data in multiple fields of view around the autonomous equipment to discern objects and terrain, and applies artificial intelligence techniques in one or more neural networks to accurately interpret this data for enabling such safe operation.

Abstract: An integrated technology platform includes multiple hardware and software components that enable any application of autonomous agricultural equipment operation in an agricultural or other off-road setting, within a common software structural architecture. The integrated technology platform represents a technology stack that is a modular architecture that can be leveraged across multiple use cases and vehicle types. The integrated technology platform includes a vehicle interface component responsible for the physical interface to agricultural equipment, a telematics component that enables stable in-field communications between all aspects of the integrated technology platform, and a perception component that operates as a safety mechanism and includes object detection and classification. Additionally, a cloud-side application performs account management and field setup and as well as syncing of field equipment and operating systems in a common operating system.
