Abstract
A system for automation of a vehicle or trailer with lift arms including a dump bed with lift arms and one or more hydraulic valves operative to lifting the lift arms, hydraulic sensors joined to each hydraulic valve, a bucket on an end of the lift arms, a camera positioned to view a rear of the dump bed, and a computer program product which monitors a surrounding area by the camera, positions the bucket by lifting the lift arms by operation of the hydraulic valve, and ceases positioning of the bucket upon detection of an obstacle or safety hazard.

A system for automation of a vehicle or trailer with lift arms comprising:
- a dump bed with lift arms and one or more hydraulic valves operative to lifting the lift arms;
- hydraulic sensors joined to the one or more hydraulic valves;
- a bucket on an end of the lift arms;
- a camera positioned to view a rear of the dump bed;
