Abstract
A remote start system for a work vehicle includes a communication unit configured to receive a remote start input signal; optical sensors providing a first image of the work vehicle or work vehicle environment; and a controller including at least a start module and a verification module. The start module is configured to generate a verification request in response to the remote start input signal. In response to the verification request, the verification module is configured to confirm that the first image satisfies a verification condition and to generate a verification confirmation when the first image satisfies the verification condition. The start module is configured to generate a start command in response to the verification confirmation. The remote start system further includes a starter device coupled to the controller and configured to energize a prime mover of the work vehicle upon receipt of the start command from the controller.
