    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a worksite map that indicates locations of characteristics and items in the field includes operating a mobile machine outfitted with a position sensor system and a multi-spectral observation sensor system in a non-plants of interest area, such as a headland or a road. Determining the locations of characteristics and items in the worksite, and external to the mobile machine, based on the sensor data generated by the multi-spectral observation sensor system and the position sensor system while the mobile machine is in the non-plants of interest area. Generating the map of the worksite that indicates the characteristics and items at their respective locations in the worksite. In some examples, the method can further include generating a control output based on the map of the worksite.

    Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for implementing autonomous control of powered earth-moving vehicles, including to automatically determine and control movement around a site having potential obstacles. For example, the systems/techniques may determine and implement autonomous operations of powered earth-moving vehicle(s) (e.g., obtain/integrate data from sensors of multiple types on a powered earth-moving vehicle, and use it to determine and control movement of the powered earth-moving vehicle around a site), including in some situations to implement coordinated actions of multiple powered earth-moving vehicles and/or of a powered earth-moving vehicle with one or more other types of construction vehicles. The described techniques may further include determining current location and positioning of the powered earth-moving vehicle on the site, determining a target destination location and/or path of the powered earth-moving vehicle, identifying and classifying obstacles (if any) along a desired path or otherwise between current and destination locations, and implementing actions to address any such obstacles.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a line laser module and an autonomous mobile device. The line laser module includes a fixed base, and a camera and a line laser emitter arranged on the fixed base. The line laser emitter is provided at one or more sides of the camera, and configured to emit a laser with a linear projection. The camera is configured to operate in conjunction with the line laser emitter, and to capture an environmental image. An infrared filter is arranged in front of the camera, and configured to allow only infrared light to enter the camera. The autonomous mobile device includes an infrared flashlight. The camera is configured to capture, at different time points, a first environmental image for distance measurement and a second environmental image for object identification.
