Original Abstract Submitted
a material transfer machine includes a material receptacle that holds material and a material transfer subsystem operable to transfer the material from the material receptacle to another location, the material transfer subsystem comprising a chute moveable between a deployed position and a storage position and an actuator that drives movement of the chute between the deployed position and the storage position. the material transfer machine further includes one or more processors, memory, and computer executable instructions, stored in the memory, that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to: receive an input indicating that the chute should be moved from the deployed position to the storage position; identify a swing zone defining an area in which the chute will travel when moved from the deployed position to the storage position by the actuator; and generate a control signal based on the determination.
