Patent ID: 11170547

Abstract:
Need exists for information management technique that allows utilization of collapsed grain culms detection for a future farming plan. A combine includes a machine body position calculation section for calculating a machine body position comprising map coordinates of a machine body, an image capturing section configured to image-capture a field at time of a harvesting work, an image recognition module configured to input image data of captured images acquired by the image capturing section and to estimate a collapsed grain culm area in the captured images and then to output recognition output data indicative of the estimated collapsed grain culm area, an evaluation module configured to output a produce evaluation value per unit traveling acquired by evaluating the agricultural produces that are harvested sequentially, a collapsed grain culm position information generation section configured to generate collapsed grain culm position information indicative of a position of the collapsed grain culm area on a map, based on the machine body position and the recognition output data and a harvest information generation section configured to generate harvest information from the machine body position at the time of harvest of the agricultural produces and the produce evaluation value.
