    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excavator_controls

    This control pattern is standardized in J1814 [dubious – discuss]. In the SAE control pattern, the left hand joystick controls Swing (left & right) and the Main Boom (up &down), and the right hand joystick controls the Stick Boom(away & close) and Bucket motions (close & dump). Left hand left = Swing left. Left hand right = Swing right.

  4. Machine control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_control

    In civil engineering, machine control is used to accurately position earthwork machinery based on 3D design models and GPS systems, and thus aid machine operators to e.g. control the position of a road grader's blade. [1] Many machine control systems utilize the Real Time Kinematic (RTK) system to improve the positioning accuracy.

  9. Laser machine control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Machine_Control

    The laser receiver detects the height of laser plane with an array of photo diodes, generally a series of photo diodes in 9" strip with a gap between diodes equal to the width of the beam. the receiver reads the height with the sensors and convert to a usable analog or digital signal and sends to the machine control unit. Modern systems use CAN ...
