Claim 15:
16. A method, comprising:
receiving, via a processor, first one-dimensional (1D) distance data from a first sensor and second 1D distance data from a second sensor, wherein the first and second sensors are configured to be mounted on an agricultural header of an agricultural system;
determining, via the processor, a first horizontal distance from the first sensor to a first plant stalk based on the first 1D distance data;
determining, via the processor, a second horizontal distance from the second sensor to a second plant stalk based on the second 1D distance data; and
controlling, via the processor, a steering system of the agricultural system to adjust a position of the agricultural header relative to the first and second plant stalks based on a difference between the first horizontal distance and the second horizontal distance.
