A vehicle may include a movable roof, a sensor supported by the roof, and an actuator for selectively raising and lowering the roof.

Adjustable height sensor roof

A vehicle is operable in a first mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received by an input device carried by the vehicle from an operator while being boarded on the vehicle and in a second mode in which vehicle actions are controlled in response to inputs received from the operator while the operator is proximate the vehicle, but no longer boarded on the vehicle. The vehicle carries a sensor configured to output a sensed input, as sensed by the sensor, from the operator proximate the vehicle, but not boarded on the vehicle. The sensed input is recognized and associated with a vehicle action and control signals are output to the vehicle based on the sensed input to cause the vehicle to carry out the vehicle action.

Vehicle control by a remote operator

A vehicle control system may include a vehicle having a propulsion unit and a steering unit, a forward-facing camera carried by the vehicle, a processor, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising operator position identification instructions. The operator position identification instructions direct the processor to identify relative positioning of a remote operator on the ground proximate the vehicle based upon signals from the forward-facing camera; and control the propulsion unit and the steering unit of the vehicle to follow the operator based upon the relative on the ground proximate the vehicle.

A computer implemented vehicle control method may include obtaining a sensed input from an operator remote from a vehicle, recognizing and associating the sensed input with a vehicle action and outputting control signals to the vehicle to cause the vehicle to carry out the vehicle action.

A power takeoff control system and method sense proximity of an operator to a power takeoff and control operation of the power takeoff based upon the sensed proximity.
