Abstract
Methods and apparatus to determine a target speed for an agricultural vehicle are described. An apparatus described herein includes at least one processor circuit to obtain a terrain map corresponding to a field, obtain, from one or more sensors of a vehicle, orientation information and tire pressure information corresponding to the vehicle, execute a predictive model based on (a) the terrain map, (b) the orientation information, and (c) the tire pressure information, and determine, based on a result of the execution, a target speed for the vehicle on the field.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- interface circuitry;
- machine-readable instructions;
- and
- at least one processor circuit to be programmed by the machine-readable instructions to:
- obtain a terrain map corresponding to a field;
- obtain, from one or more sensors of a vehicle, orientation information and tire pressure information corresponding to the vehicle;
- execute a predictive model based on (a) the terrain map, (b) the orientation information, and (c) the tire pressure information;
- determine, based on a result of the execution, a target speed for the vehicle on the field;
- obtain tuning data in response to a manual override of the target speed;
- and
- when the tuning data satisfies a threshold, tune the predictive model for the vehicle based on the tuning data.
At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising machine-readable instructions to cause at least one processor circuit to at least:
- obtain a terrain map corresponding to a field;
- obtain, from one or more sensors of a vehicle, orientation information and tire pressure information corresponding to the vehicle;
- execute a predictive model based on (a) the terrain map, (b) the orientation information, and (c) the tire pressure information;
- determine, based on a result of the execution, a target speed for the vehicle on the field;
- obtain tuning data in response to a manual override of the target speed;
- and
- when the tuning data satisfies a threshold, tune the predictive model for the vehicle based on the tuning data.
