An improved controlling of a dumping of a load of an earth moving machine, which has a conveying container configured for carrying the load. Control data for maneuvering the conveying container according to a selected dumping mode are generated by analyzing perception data and/or machine sensing data to determine a material parameter providing information on an adhesive property of a current load of the conveying container. Based on the material parameter, an appropriate dumping mode is selected, e.g. to improve efficiency of the unloading sequence and to reduce wear of the earth moving machine.

Controlling of a dumping of a load of an earth moving machine

A construction machine comprising a chassis, a steering, and a powertrain for driving the construction machine by the chassis, an earth-moving tool for working a terrain, and a measuring system having a first measuring unit configured for generating first measuring data in a first detection range and comprising at least a first camera and a first LiDAR scanner configured for rotating a first measuring beam around a first axis and around a second axis non-parallel to the first axis with a rotating speed of at least 0.5 Hz with respect to each axis, an interface connecting the first measuring unit to a computer configured for, based on the first measuring data, at least one of generating a three-dimensional model of the terrain within the first detection range, identifying an obstacle or a person within the first detection range, and controlling the steering, the powertrain, and/or the earth-moving tool.
