AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing work vehicles lack energy-saving control mechanisms, as they only adjust traveling speed and do not optimize the rotation speed of the power device based on the actual field conditions and work settings.
Method used
The work vehicle uses an imaging device to analyze the field conditions and automatically adjusts the rotation speed of the power unit to optimal levels based on whether the land is uncultivated or cultivated, detects crop lodging, and identifies muddy or dry conditions to minimize power consumption.
Benefits of technology
This approach enables energy-saving operation by dynamically adjusting the power unit's rotation speed according to the field conditions, reducing power consumption and maintaining efficient performance.

Abstract
The objective is to achieve energy-saving operation by analyzing images detected by an imaging device and automatically adjusting the rotation speed of the power unit to an appropriate speed according to the vehicle's work settings. [Solution] By comparing the video captured by the imaging device with pre-registered image data, the system determines whether the land is uncultivated (where crops have not yet been harvested) or cultivated (where crops have already been harvested). If the land is uncultivated, the vehicle and implement are set to the uncultivated rotation speed, which is the rotation speed at which the vehicle is stopped. If the land is cultivated, the vehicle remains operational, and the implement is set to the cultivated rotation speed, which is the rotation speed at which the vehicle is stopped.
