SEMI-AUTONOMOUS REFUSE VEHICLE

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18925756 titled 'SEMI-AUTONOMOUS REFUSE VEHICLE

Original Abstract Submitted

A system for controlling the operation of a refuse collection vehicle includes at least one first sensor coupled to the vehicle to detect objects during an approach, at least one second sensor to detect the vehicle's position during the approach, and one or more processors. The processors receive object data from the first sensor and positional data from the second sensor, and use this information to identify a refuse container. Upon identifying the refuse container, the processors transmit a first instruction to the vehicle's control system to adjust operating parameters during the approach.
