Patent Images
1. A method for controlling a machine remotely, the method comprising:
- generating, on a display device associated with a remote control console, a first image associated with a position of the machine at a first time period;
estimating a virtual position of the machine based at least on the first position and at least one operating parameter associated with the machine; and
generating, on the display device, a virtual image of the machine relative to the first image, the virtual image of the machine corresponding to the estimated virtual position of the machine.

Abstract
Systems and methods for remotely controlling machines includes generating, on a display device associated with a remote control console, a first image associated with a position of the machine at a first time period. A virtual position of the machine is estimated based at least on the first position and at least one operating parameter associated with the machine. A virtual image of the machine relative to the first image is generated on the display device, the virtual image of the machine corresponding to the estimated virtual position of the machine.

8. A method for controlling a machine remotely, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a first time period, information indicative of a coordinate location of the machine, an orientation of the machine, and at least one operating parameter associated with the machine; generating, on a display device associated with a remote control console, a first image associated with a position of the machine within a worksite at a first time period; predicting a virtual position of the machine within the worksite based on the coordinate location of the machine received at the first time period, an amount of time elapsed relative to the first time period, and the at least one operating parameter associated with the machine; and generating on the display device, a virtual image of the machine relative to the first image, the virtual image of the machine based on the predicted virtual second location of the machine. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A remote control console configured to control a machine remotely, the remote control console comprising:
-
an operator interface configured to receive an input from an operator corresponding to a desired location of the machine; and a processor, configured to; generate, on a display device associated with a remote control console, a first image associated with a position of the machine at a first time period; estimate a virtual position of the machine based at least on the first position and at least one operating parameter associated with the machine; and generate, on the display device, a virtual image of the machine relative to the first image, the virtual image of the machine corresponding to the estimated virtual position of the machine. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
