Abstract
Characteristic data indicative of one or more characteristics is obtained at an agricultural harvester. A severed crop material quantity signal indicative of a severed crop material quantity corresponding to a header on the agricultural harvester is generated based on the characteristic data. The severed crop material quantity is assessed to generate an assessment output. The agricultural harvester is controlled at a worksite based on the assessment output.
Claims20
A computer implemented method, comprising:
- obtaining characteristic data on an agricultural harvester indicative of one or more characteristics;
- generating, based on the characteristic data, a severed crop material quantity signal indicative of a severed crop material quantity corresponding to a header on the agricultural harvester;
- assessing the severed crop material quantity to generate an assessment output;
- and
- controlling the agricultural harvester at a worksite based on the assessment output.
2 more elements
A control system for an agricultural harvester, the control system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions, executable by the one or more processors, that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to:
- obtain characteristic data indicative of one or more characteristics;
- generate, based on the characteristic data, a severed crop material quantity output indicative of a severed crop material quantity corresponding to a header on the agricultural harvester;
- assess the severed crop material quantity to generate an assessment output;
- and
- control the agricultural harvester at a worksite based on the assessment output.
5 more elements
An agricultural harvester comprising:
- a header configured to sever crop at a worksite to generate severed crop material;
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions, executable by the one or more processors, that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to:
- obtain characteristic data indicative of one or more characteristics;
- generate, based on the characteristic data, a severed crop material quantity output indicative of a severed crop material quantity corresponding to the header;
- assess the severed crop material quantity to generate an assessment output;
- and
- control the agricultural harvester at the worksite based on the assessment output.
