Publication number: 20250053448Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to controlling hardware resources over an interface. In some embodiments, a first device performs tasks using one or more included hardware resources, including providing a local control stream that controls operation of the one or more hardware resources. In response to detecting a connection to a second device, the first device offloads the tasks to the second device including transitioning from providing the local control stream to routing, via the interface controller, a remote control stream received from the second device to the one or more hardware resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2024Publication date: February 13, 2025Inventors: Scott A.

Patent number: 9648802Abstract: A system is provided for planting multiple types of seed and automatically switching between the varieties during planting in a single planting pass of a planting session of row-crop planting an agricultural field. The system may include a selector assembly arranged between a multi-compartment on-row hopper and a seed meter at each row unit of a planter. A control system controls selector valves of the selector assembly to switch from releasing of seeds of a first type from the on-row hopper the seed meter to releasing of seeds of a second type from the on-row hopper to the seed meter for providing a switchover of seeds being planted from the seed meter, from the first to the second type when the seed meter cross a boundary between different zones of the agricultural field.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2014Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: CNH Industrial America LLCInventors: Keith W.
