A vision system for a machine system includes a first set of cameras mounted on the first section and a second set of cameras mounted on the second section of the machine. A controller is coupled to the first set of cameras and the second set of cameras. The controller includes a first and a second image transformation modules to convert a first and a second images captured by the first and the second set of cameras into a first and a second transformed image based at least on a view type, respectively. An image combination module combines the first transformed image and the second transformed image to a combined image with reference to the articulation joint. The image combination module communicates with a display device to display the combined image. The combined image is indicative of surroundings of the first section and the second section of the machine.

Vision system and method of monitoring surroundings of machine

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for controlling the speed of an engine. The engine has an associated turbo charger and a throttle. The method includes the steps of determining a load characteristic of the engine, determining a change in said load characteristic, and controlling the engine in response to said load change.

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for determining a fuel command for an fuel system. The present invention provides a method for determining a fuel command for an engine. The method includes determining a desired and actual engine speed, comparing the desired and actual engine speeds, and controlling the air/fuel mixture flow into the intake manifold of the fuel system in response to the comparison. The inlet pressure and temperature within the manifold are then determined. A fuel command is determined in response to the manifold air pressure and temperature. The fuel command is then modified in response to the comparison of the desired and actual engine speeds.
