1. Path Generation Method with Steering Rate Constraint

The practical way to generate a reference path in path tracking is to follow an adjacent swath. However, if the adjacent swath contains sharp turnings, the reference path will eventually contain sharper turn than the tractor is able to follow. This occurs especially in the corner of a field plot when the field is driven around. In the headland, the objective is to minimize the time to reach the next swath. The commonly known method to generate the shortest path between two arbitrary... J. Backman, T. Oksanen, A. Visala

2. Optimization of Forage Harvesting By Automatic Speed Control and Additive Application

Efficient use of machines is especially important in forage harvesting due to the short harvesting period and expensive machinery. To achieve the best efficiency, a harvesting machine, such as a loader wagon, should be used with optimal loading. Whereas overloading the machine can cause blockages in the cut-and-feed unit, underloading consumes more time and reduces the quality of the resulting silage. In addition, the quality can be improved by optimizing the dosage of the additive. Since the... A. Suokannas, J. Backman, A. Visala, A. Kunnas

3. Monitoring Potassium Levels in Peat-Grown Pineapple Using Selected Spectral Ratios

In this study, we assessed the biophysical changes within pineapple (var. MD2) in response to different potassium (K) rates using a hyperspectral approach. K deficiency was detected at 171 days after planting. Shortage of K also exhibited a shift in red edge towards shorter wavelengths between 500-700 nm. In addition, spectral ranges of 430 nm and 680 nm, as well as 680-752 nm were found to be most effective in differentiating spectral response to varying K rates. Three vegetation indices, i.e....
