Abstract
A system includes a receiver mounted on a work machine, and a processor. The receiver receives a signal usable to identify a position of the work machine. The processor acquires a position of the receiver from the signal received by the receiver. The processor acquires a calculated position of a calibration point in the work machine by calculating a position of the calibration point from the position of the receiver. The processor acquires an actual position of the calibration point. The processor generates calibration data usable to calibrate a position of a reference point in the work machine by comparing the actual position with the calculated position of the calibration point.
Claims18
A system comprising:
- a receiver mounted on a work machine, the receiver receiving a signal usable to identify a position of the work machine;
- and
- a processor configured to
- acquire a position of the receiver from the signal received by the receiver,
- acquire a calculated position of a calibration point on the work machine by calculating a position of the calibration point based on the position of the receiver and vehicle body dimension data of the work machine,
- acquire an actual position of the calibration point by measuring with a measurement device, and
- generate calibration data usable to calibrate a position of a reference point on the work machine by comparing the actual position with the calculated position of the calibration point.
A method executed by a processor, the method comprising:
- acquiring a position of a receiver mounted on the work machine from a signal received by the receiver;
- acquiring a calculated position of a calibration point on the work machine by calculating a position of the calibration point based on the position of the receiver and vehicle body dimension data of the work machine;
- acquiring an actual position of the calibration point by measuring with a measurement device;
- and
- generating calibration data usable to calibrate a position of a reference point on the work machine by comparing the actual position and the calculated position of the calibration point.
