The lift assembly is configured to selectively engage a waste container. The lift assembly is movable between a first position and a second position. The projector is positioned to emit light outwardly away from the refuse vehicle and proximate the lift assembly to define a target area.

Lighting system for a refuse vehicle

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device, a vehicle body, an electric power take-off system, and a hydraulic component. The energy storage device is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The vehicle body is supported by the chassis, and includes an on-board receptacle for storing refuse therein. The electric power take-off system is positioned on the vehicle body, and includes an electric motor configured to drive a hydraulic pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power. An amount of electrical power at least one of received by and provided to the electric motor is limited by a controller to control an output characteristic of the hydraulic pump. The hydraulic component is in fluid communication with the hydraulic pump and configured to operate using hydraulic power from the electric power take-off system.

Electric power take-off pump control system

A system for tracking refuse collection vehicles includes one or more memory devices having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including receiving, from a user device, a first user input indicating one or more parameters of a geofence, the geofence defining a virtual perimeter around a geographical location, determining whether the refuse collection vehicle is within the virtual perimeter of the geofence based on a current location of the refuse collection vehicle, and transmitting, to the user device, a first notification based on a determination that the refuse collection vehicle is within the geofence, the first notification indicating to a user of the user device that the refuse collection vehicle is within the geofence.

Active truck tracking and alerts for residential refuse can collection

A wireless charging system includes a platform having a substantially horizontal upper surface configured to support a vehicle and an induction coil coupled to the platform. The induction coil is configured to receive electrical energy from an energy source and generate a magnetic field above the upper surface, the magnetic field being positioned to wirelessly transfer the electrical energy to the vehicle while the vehicle is positioned atop the platform.

Wireless charging system

A vehicle includes an automated apparatus extending from the vehicle and a projection system. The projection system includes a projector positioned on the vehicle. The projector is configured to operate to provide a projection onto a ground surface, the projection covering a zone. The automated apparatus is configured to operate within the zone.

Systems and methods for spatial awareness of a refuse vehicle

A refuse vehicle includes multiple systems, each system including a sensor. The refuse vehicle also includes an automated check system. The automated check system includes processing circuitry configured to obtain sensor data from the sensor of each of the multiple systems, determine which of the multiple systems require manual inspection based on the sensor data, and operate a display screen to prompt a technician to manually inspect one or more of the multiple systems.

Systems and methods for automatic system checks

A refuse vehicle includes a battery configured to provide electrical energy to drive at least one of a plurality of wheels, a vehicle body supported by the chassis and defining a receptacle for storing refuse therein, and an electric power take-off system including a motor configured to power to a hydraulic system in response to receiving the electrical energy from the battery, an inverter configured to provide the electrical energy to the motor from the battery, a sensor configured to detect thermal energy within the inverter, and a controller configured to receive data from the sensor, wherein the controller is further configured to determine if the data from the sensor is greater than a critical operating condition and reduce a rate of electrical energy supplied to the motor in response to determining that the data from the sensor is greater than the critical operating condition.

System and method for electronic power take-off controls

A system for modifying a load map of a worksite includes one or more processing circuits. The one or more processing circuits include one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors. The one or more memory devices are configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to receive a load indication regarding a load of a work machine, generate a modified load map based on the load map and the load where the modified load map includes an acceptable zone defining an acceptable load threshold and a warning zone defining a warning load threshold, receive a location indication regarding a location of the work machine on the worksite, and provide a warning when the work machine is within or approaching the warning zone.
