  • Publication number: 20240012408
    Abstract: A vehicle control system may include a vehicle having a propulsion unit and a steering unit, a forward-facing camera carried by the vehicle, a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising operator position identification instructions. The operator position identification instructions direct the processor to identify relative positioning of a remote operator on the ground proximate the vehicle based upon signals from the forward-facing camera; and control the propulsion unit and the steering unit of the vehicle to follow the operator based upon the relative on the ground proximate the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20230409026
    Abstract: A vehicle is operable in a first mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received by an input device carried by the vehicle from an operator while being boarded on the vehicle and in a second mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received from the operator while the operator is proximate the vehicle, but no longer boarded on the vehicle. The vehicle carries a sensor configured to output a sensed input, as sensed by the sensor, from the operator proximate the vehicle, but not boarded on the vehicle. The sensed input is recognized and associated with a vehicle action and control signals are output to the vehicle based on the sensed input to cause the vehicle to carry out the vehicle action.

  • Publication number: 20230094371
    Abstract: A vehicle row follow system may include a vehicle comprising at least one sensor to output signals serving as a basis for a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud and to output signals corresponding to a two-dimensional (2D) image of a region forward the vehicle. The system may further include a non-transitory computer readable medium containing instructions to direct a processor to: determine plan row lines in a 2D image; determine a yaw of the vehicle based upon a slope of a heading line relative to a centerline between the plant row lines in the 2D image; determine a lateral offset of the vehicle from the centerline between the consecutive plant rows based upon an identity of the consecutive plant rows in the 3D point cloud; and output steering control signals based upon the determined yaw and lateral offset of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11567492
    Abstract: A computer implemented vehicle control method may include obtaining a sensed input from an operator remote from a vehicle, recognizing and associating the sensed input with a vehicle action and outputting control signals to the vehicle to cause the vehicle to carry out the vehicle action.

  • Patent number: 9014013
    Abstract: Improved debugging capabilities for network packet path tracing. Embodiments trace both the control and data planes. During control plane operations each switch appends its identity to the payload, providing a full trace of the control plan path. SNMP Trap commands containing the forward path payload are provided back at each hop. The data plane is monitored by setting traps along the control plane path, with SNMP Trap commands at each hop being provided that indicate a given switch has been used.

  • Patent number: 8892717
    Abstract: A network management device which registers for any state change notifications from the devices in the network. The network management device updates its status and values of the devices associated with each state change notification by querying the device. In this manner the management device can make a more timely update for a particular device and need not keep querying devices that have not changed, thus eliminating many unnecessary transactions. In certain embodiments polling is still performed. As a result, the management device is both more current in its displayed data and has fewer network transactions.
