Abstract

L'invention concerne une moissonneuse et son procédé de commande automatique. La moissonneuse comprend un dispositif principal de moissonneuse (10), au moins un dispositif d'acquisition d'image (20), un système de planification de trajet (60), et un système de traitement d'images (30). Le dispositif d'acquisition d'images (20) est disposé sur le dispositif principal de moissonneuse (10), et le dispositif d'acquisition d'image (20) capture une image autour du dispositif principal de moissonneuse (10). Le système de traitement d'images (30) identifie des informations de terres agricoles dans l'image sur la base de l'image capturée par le dispositif d'acquisition d'images (20). Le dispositif principal de moissonneuse (10) commande automatiquement la conduite en fonction des informations de terres agricoles identifiées par le système de traitement d'images (30). Le système de planification de trajet (60) planifie au moins un trajet de déplacement planifié sur la base des informations de terres agricoles identifiées par le système de traitement d'images (30). Le dispositif principal de moissonneuse (10) commande la conduite selon le trajet de déplacement planifié par le système de planification de trajet (60).
