System and method for modifying a path for a machine

摘要

A system for modifying a path of operation of a machine includes a position sensor and a controller. The controller stores the path of operation, receives a plurality of position signals as the work implement moves material along the path of operation, and determines the position of the work surface. The controller further determines an amount of material moved based at least in part upon the position of the work surface and modifies parameters used to determine a subsequent path of operation if the amount of material moved exceeds a predetermined amount.

1. A system for controlling operation of a machine having a ground engaging work implement, comprising:
a position sensor associated with the machine for generating position signals indicative of a position of a work surface; and
a controller configured to:
store a final design plane;generate a target pass surface;generate a path of operation;generate a plurality of commands to move the ground engaging work implement along the path of operation;receive a plurality of position signals from the position sensor as the work implement moves material along the path of operation;determine the position of the work surface based upon the plurality of position signals;upon the position of the work surface reaching the target pass surface, utilize a subsequent target pass surface spaced from the target pass surface, the subsequent target pass surface being at an angle relative to the target pass surface and located closer to the final design plane than the target pass surface;generate a subsequent path of operation, the subsequent path of operation being based upon the subsequent target pass surface and at least a portion of the subsequent path of operation being at an angle relative to the path of operation; andgenerate a plurality of commands to move the ground engaging work implement along the subsequent path of operation.
