MACHINE CONTROL SYSTEM HAVING AUTONOMOUS EDGE DUMPING |
| 摘要 |
A control system is disclosed for use with a machine at a worksite. The control system may have an offboard controller. The offboard controller may be configured to receive information regarding a berm at the worksite, determine starting and ending points spaced apart along an edge of the berm based on the information, and determine a maximum orthogonal distance from a virtual line extending between the starting and ending points to the edge of the berm. The offboard controller may be further configured to selectively validate the starting and ending points based on the maximum orthogonal distance, and to designate a center of the virtual line between validated starting and ending points as a dump target. |

1. A control system for use with a machine operating at a worksite, the control system comprising:
an offboard controller configured to:
receive information regarding a berm at a dump location of the worksite;determine starting and ending points spaced apart along an edge of the berm based on the information;determine a maximum orthogonal distance from a virtual line extending between the starting and ending points to the edge of the berm;selectively validate the starting and ending points based on the maximum orthogonal distance; anddesignate a center of the virtual line between validated starting and ending points as a dump target. |
