摘要 |
A method of mapping a machine having a work tool includes sensing an outer boundary of the machine and generating a first set of information indicative of the outer boundary of the machine, moving the work tool relative to the machine through substantially an entire range of motion of the work tool, and sensing an outer boundary of the work tool during movement of the work tool through substantially the entire range of motion. The method also includes generating a second set of information indicative of a location of the outer boundary of the work tool through substantially the entire range of motion, determining information indicative of a position of an object disposed proximate the machine, and determining whether the information indicative of the position of the object is included in either the first or second sets of information. |

1. A method of mapping a machine having a work tool, comprising:
sensing an outer boundary of the machine and generating a first set of information indicative of the outer boundary of the machine; moving the work tool relative to the machine through substantially an entire range of motion of the work tool; sensing an outer boundary of the work tool during movement of the work tool through substantially the entire range of motion and generating a second set of information indicative of a location of the outer boundary of the work tool through substantially the entire range of motion; determining information indicative of a position of an object disposed proximate the machine; and determining whether the information indicative of the position of the object is included in either the first or second sets of information. |
