System and Method for Crop Canopy Height Detection

원문 (중국어)

A crop canopy height detection system for an agricultural machine includes a plurality of contact sensors and a processing unit. The contact sensors are spaced apart across the front of the machine and are each operable to detect physical contact with a crop being harvested by the machine and to generate a corresponding crop contact signal. The processing unit receives the crop contact signals from the contact sensors and determines a canopy height of the crop based on the crop contact signals.
