Abstract

A material moving machine including an implement, a camera, an augmented display, and a controller. The controller is programmed to store a three-dimensional model of underground features of terrain, capture an implement image comprising the implement and terrain, generate a superimposed image by superimposing corresponding portions of the implement image and the three-dimensional model of underground features, overlay a virtual trench on the superimposed image to generate an augmented reality overlay image, generate the augmented reality overlay image, and display the augmented reality overlay image on the augmented display.
