Fill level detection and control

Last updated:

Abstract:

Dynamic change information is detected on a vehicle, that is transporting a load receiving structure. The dynamic operational information is monitored to identify a period of dynamic change in the operation of the vehicle. The period of dynamic change is used to define a sampling window. The dynamic operational information, during the sampling window, is provided to fill level classifier logic that identifies a fill level corresponding to the dynamic operational information. A fill level metric, indicative of the identified fill level, is generated, and an action signal is generated based upon the fill level metric.
