Automated trailer load geometry sensors: BayerRecent Research Landscape
Undetected overhanging loads on autonomous trailers cause collisions and equipment damage. These systems engineer precise spatial monitoring and load-state feedback to ensure safe navigation in driverless environments.
What technical problems is Bayer addressing in Automated trailer load geometry sensors?
Unsafe reverse maneuvering visibility
(10)evidences
Inaccurate or missing physical dimensions of a trailer prevent safe automated maneuvering. Determining these parameters ensures stable vehicle control and collision avoidance.
Inaccurate cargo spatial assessment
(8)evidences
Undetected load protrusions and improper spatial distribution cause collisions during transit and automated handling. Eliminating these geometric uncertainties prevents structural damage and equipment failure.
Inaccurate autonomous vehicle coupling
(1)evidences
Inaccurate spatial alignment between driverless tractors and trailers leads to mechanical failure or collision. Precise geometric coordination prevents docking errors in unmanned environments.
