A method and system for identifying, using a computing unit, lengths of a particle in a material flow is disclosed. The computing unit is configured to analyze images of the material flow () in an analytical routine and to derive particle lengths of particles of the material flow contained in the images. The particle length derived in the analytical routine may comprise an excess length, with the analytical routine being based on a machine learning method trained to find or identify particles with the excess length.

A crop harvesting machine has a machine body and a discharge spout attached to the machine body for overloading crop via a crop stream to a trailer. And electronic spout control and a discharge spout drive arrangement displaces the discharge spout relative to the machine body based on drive commands of the electronic spout control for guiding the crop stream to a target hit point at the trailer. A first sensor arrangement generates sensor information by optically identifying a reference feature at the trailer and detecting the position of the reference feature and/or space orientation of the reference feature. The second sensor arrangement generates sensor information by detecting a space orientation of the machine body, the discharge spout or both. The electronic spout control generates its drive commands for guiding the crop stream based on the sensor information.

A control system controlling a goods carrier of an agricultural vehicle for conveying goods to a target area, has a 3D imaging device providing frames imaging the target area, a data processor and a memory. The control system derives information from the frames and operates to obtain a reference frame comprising 3D information about the pose of the target area, identify a plurality of characteristic points of the target area in the reference frame, obtain a new frame, analyze the new frame to identify a plurality of characteristic points, search and match characteristic points in the reference frame and the new frame, analyze pairs of matched characteristic points to establish a group of pairs showing a common change of pose between the reference frame and the new frame, and provide a signal taking into account results of the latter analysis.

A filling degree gauge for measuring and displaying a residual filling potential of a target area, such as a container, being filled through a target, such as an open top, with goods by a goods carrier, such as a discharge spout, of an agricultural vehicle, such as a harvester, has a 3D sensor for observing at least a part of the target area including at least a part of the target, a data control system and a visual display unit. The data control system operates to provide on the visual display unit a visual display indicating residual filling potential by indicating the current one of at least three different levels of residual filling potential.

A transferring device includes controllable goods carrier conveying goods to a target area, a stereo camera for providing images of the target area and a control system for deriving information from the images and controlling the goods carrier taking into account the information derived from the images. The stereo camera has two objective lenses and defines a common base line with a tilt angle relative to a horizontal. The common base line is placed in a vertical plane. The transferring device also includes floodlight projectors that are placed at a distance of at least 0.5 m from the stereo camera. Preferably, the controllable goods carrier is an ejecting spout.
