Abstract
A harvesting machine is configured to gather harvested material into the harvesting machine during a harvesting operation. A conveyance subsystem configured to convey the harvested material from the harvesting machine to a receiving vehicle during the harvesting operation. An image capture system generates an image of the receiving vehicle and an image processor uses a machine learning system to recognize a boundary of the receiving vehicle. A control system determines a position of the receiving vehicle boundary relative to the harvesting machine, and generates a control signal based on the identified receiving vehicle boundary.
