Agricultural Machine Simulator

摘要

A simulator of an agricultural working machine has a computer unit coupled to a display unit and a control unit. The agricultural working machine to be simulated has adjustable working parts and control elements that implement adjustment of the working parts and a software module that is stored in the computer unit. The software module depicts a process model of crop-processing processes to be implemented by the agricultural working machine and depicts the machine behavior resulting from the crop-processing processes. The process model and the machine behavior are visualized in the display unit and can be edited by the control unit.

主权项

1. A simulator of an agricultural working machine, comprising
at least one computer unit coupled to a display unit and a control unit, where the agricultural working machine to be simulated comprises adjustable working parts and control elements that implement the adjustment of the working parts; wherein a software module stored in the computer unit depicts a process model of crop-processing processes to be implemented by the agricultural working machine and machine behavior resulting from the crop-processing processes, wherein the process model and the machine behavior are visualized in the display unit and are editable by the control unit, wherein the display unit simulates a realistic user interface by providing a visualization of the control elements, the crop-processing processes and the machine behavior whereby the visualized control elements and a steering wheel are animated to be operated as would be control elements and a steering wheel actually positioned in the agricultural working machine.
