Working Vehicle Remote Control With Multidirectional Attitude Display
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing remote operation systems for working vehicles only display attitude images in one direction, making it difficult for operators, especially inexperienced ones, to control the vehicle during operations involving directions other than the imaged direction.
Innovation Solution
A system with multiple imagers and a controller that superimposes attitude objects on captured images from different directions, allowing for comprehensive vehicle and implement attitude display on a single screen.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If an attitude image is displayed in a superimposed manner on a captured image of one direction only, then the remote operation screen can be kept simple, but the operator cannot understand the attitude of the working vehicle when traveling in other directions or performing work with the working implement
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is segmented into multiple regions, with each region showing a captured image from a different direction (front, rear, left, right). Each captured image has its own superimposed attitude image, allowing operators to view attitude information specific to each direction simultaneously without overwhelming the entire display
Solution Approach 2:
The system transitions from displaying attitude information in a single dimension (one direction) to displaying it across multiple dimensions (multiple directions). By arranging captured images and their corresponding attitude images in different spatial regions on the screen, the system provides comprehensive multi-directional attitude information while maintaining screen organization
2Loss of information
If multiple captured images from different directions are displayed with superimposed attitude objects, then comprehensive attitude information is provided, but the display complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display is divided into multiple independent regions, each containing a captured image from a specific direction with its own superimposed attitude image. This segmentation allows comprehensive attitude information to be presented without overwhelming the display, as each region independently shows relevant information for that direction
Solution Approach 2:
The display system is designed to universally handle multiple types of information simultaneously - captured images from different directions, attitude images for each direction, and their superimposed combinations. This multi-functional display approach provides comprehensive information while maintaining a consistent and manageable interface structure

AI summary
A working vehicle remote operation assistance system includes a detector to detect an attitude of a working vehicle, a first imager to perform imaging of a surrounding area around a working implement coupled to the working vehicle, a second imager to perform imaging of a surrounding area around the working vehicle, different from that of the first imager, and a remote control apparatus including a display to display captured images obtained by the first imager and the second imager and a controller configured to control the display and command that a first attitude object indicating the attitude of the working vehicle detected by the detector be displayed in a superimposed manner on the plurality of captured images displayed on the display.
