LightBaR
Curved guidance
the lightbar displays graphics to assist the operator when navigating along curved
swaths. the X-track Led method used during Straight-Line guidance is also used
during Curved guidance.
the projected swath path is displayed in the graphics area of the lightbar. the
projected path is comprised of four horizontal bars. the bottom bar indicates the
nearest proximity to the vehicle; the top bar indicates the furthest away. the width
of the bars decrease as the distance from the vehicle increases to add perspective
to the view. The projected distance of the first bar from the front of the vehicle is
based on vehicle speed. a straight lightbar display indicates that there are no turns
approaching. a skewed lightbar display indicates that a turn is approaching in the
direction the bars are skewed. the X-track Leds indicate the vehicle’s position in
relation to the guideline configured during Swath mode. The X-Track LEDs do not
provide information relating to the curved path ahead of the vehicle; they simply
indicate the vehicle’s location in regard to the established guideline.
