Abstract

See full text

An image processing system is configured to identify features of the field in the image signals of the visual sensor system and, on the basis of the identified features, to create a first path for the vehicle. A navigation unit is configured to determine the position of a reference point on the vehicle. An electronic memory is configured to store waypoints for a second path of the vehicle to be driven. A path calculator is configured to convert the first and/or second path into a common coordinate system. A fusion unit is configured to fuse the first path and the second path and, based on the fused path thus obtained, to provide a signal to a steering control system to steer the vehicle along the fused path and/or to store waypoints for positions passed by the vehicle calculated on the basis of the fused path in the memory.
