Abstract
A path planning system for a work vehicle includes a controller configured to determine an initial path between an end point of a first swath and a starting point of a second swath. In addition, the controller is configured to identify a restricted region positioned along the initial path, and to determine a first bounding point of the restricted region. The controller is also configured to determine a first waypoint based on the first bounding point. A distance between the first waypoint and the first bounding point is greater than or equal to half of a lateral extent of the work vehicle and less than half of a lateral extent of an implement. Furthermore, the controller is configured to determine an updated path that intersects the first waypoint, and to output signal(s) indicative of the updated path and/or instructions to direct the work vehicle along the updated path.
