The machine E disclosed in
The control system CS for controlling the tool 3 of the machine E comprises at least one controller CO. The control system CS further comprises detecting means DM, the detecting means DM comprising at least one range finder device 10 for at least partly detecting and positioning the object with regards to the tool 3 in 3D space of the work site WS, when the object is either suspended by the tool 3 or at a position at the work site WS. Furthermore, in the control system CS an operation mode of the at least one controller CO depends at least in part on the object, such as on at least one dimension or weight of the object. The detecting means may alternatively or additionally comprise a stereo camera arrangement.
The operation mode of the at least one controller CO defines at least one movement of the tool 3 of the machine E. For example, if there are no obstacles in the surroundings of the machine E, the movements of the tool 3 may be faster and/or large-scale, but if there is at least one surrounding obstacle in the surroundings of the machine E, the movements of the tool 3 may be slower and/or minor so as to avoid any risk of being hit to the obstacle by the tool 3 or the object being handled by the tool 3. Possible changes in the operation mode may vary for example depending on the operating situation of the machine E, for example depending on whether the object is to be approached or whether the object is already hauled.
The surrounding obstacle may for example be ground, such as a formation of the ground at the work site WS, for example a hillock at the work site WS. The surrounding obstacle may also be for example a building at the work site or other machine or other object at the work site WS. The surrounding obstacle may also be for example an animal got into the work site WS or a human working at the work site WS, including also the operator 9 of the machine E controlling the operations of the machine E outside of the control cabin 8 of the machine E with the controller CO detached from the machine E. The surrounding obstacle may also be a virtual static boundary set for a static obstacle at the work site WS or a virtual moving boundary set for an obstacle being able to move. The setting of the virtual static or moving boundary may have been initiated by the operator 9 of the machine E to be controlled and remaining at the work site WS or by the operator of the machine or the machine itself or the human entering into the work site
WS.
When the operation mode of the at least one controller depends at least in part on the object, the operation mode may depend for example on the dimensions of the object, such as length, width, height, thickness, diameter or circumference of the object. If the object fits into the tool 3 completely, the tool 3 is easier to handle, for example to stop, when compared to situations wherein the object extends far away from the tool 3 and provides different kind of lever efforts affecting the tool 3 and the machine E. Herein the length, width, height, thickness, diameter or circumference of the object may refer to the dimensions detected by the detecting means DM or to the dimensions set to the object for example by the operator 9.
Alternatively, or in addition to, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend on the weight of the object, herein, again, a heavy object causing more significant forces of inertia in the handling of the tool 3 and the machine E.
Alternatively, or in addition to, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend on the prevailing or current speed and direction of motion of the object being suspended by the tool 3. The object moving too fast may initiate a need to change the operation mode to a one providing a slower movement of the object. The operation mode causing the object to move very slowly may, in turn, be changed to a one providing a faster movement of the object if that is allowable in view of the surrounding obstacles. The operation mode of the at least one controller CO may also depend on a target value set for the speed of the movement of the object. According to an embodiment, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend, in addition to the at least one feature disclosed above, on a speed and direction of the movement of a moving surrounding obstacle 18, whereby the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may for example be changed in response to the moving surrounding obstacle 18 possibly entering into an area of extension of the at least one of the machine E, the tool 3 and the object handled or to be handled by the tool 3.
According to an embodiment, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend, in addition to the at least one feature disclosed above, on a speed and direction of the movement of the virtual moving boundary set for the obstacle being able to move.
According to an embodiment, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend, in addition to the at least one feature disclosed above, on a property of an underlay, such as a softness of the underlay at which the machine E is operating. The softness of the underlay may be detected for example on the basis of an inclination of the machine observed by respective inclination sensors or corresponding means.
According to an embodiment, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may depend, in addition to the at least one feature disclosed above, on the operator 9 specified adjustments made by or made for the operator 9 currently logged in to the control system CS.
According to an embodiment, the operation mode of the at least one controller CO and extent of available adjustments therein may depend, in addition to the at least one feature disclosed above, on the skill level data of the operator 9 currently logged in the control system CS of the machine E. The skill level data may be defined by at least one of usage hours of the machine E, usage hours of the corresponding machine E, competence level accomplished or passed by an examination or test. The operator 9 with administrator privileges may define the skill level by editing the skill level data regarding the operator 9. The operator 9 with administrator privileges may define the skill level by editing the skill level data regarding the operator 9 in a cloud service 19 and the machine E retrieves the data from the cloud service 19 through a respective cloud service communication channel 20.

This means that possible control actions to be executed in operating the machine E and/or the tool 3 may be dependent on the location and/or orientation of the tool 3 and/or the machine and/or the object to be handled by the tool 3.
According to an embodiment of the control system CS, the sensing means 15a, 15b further provides the control system CS with position data of the surrounding obstacles 18, and that the operation mode of the at least one controller CO depends at least in part on the surrounding obstacles 18, whereby the operation mode of the at least one controller CO may for example be changed in response to the surrounding obstacle 18 possibly remaining in an area of extension of the at least one of the machine E, the tool 3 and the object handled or to be handled by the tool 3.

The data regarding the object may be displayed by at least one displaying unit and it may be configured to display at least one illustration of the at least one dimension data of the object.
When the operation mode of the at least one controller CO depends at least in part on the sensed surroundings, the control system CS prevents any collision between a surrounding obstacle 18 and the machine E, the tool 3 and the object being handled by the tool 3. The dimension data of the object and the weight of the object may be information that is input to the control system CS for the first time when the object is intended to be handled by the tool 3 of the machine E. Alternatively the dimension data of the object and the weight of the object may be information input to the control system CS when the object is delivered to the work site WS. The dimension and weight data may also be edited or supplemented when the object is intended to be handled by the tool 3 of the machine E. The detecting means DM may also detect at least one further dimension of the object and this one further dimension may be added into the dimension data regarding the dimensions of the object.
The safety zone data may determine a portion in the object which must not be gripped for some reason when handling the object, for example due to vulnerable accessories installed to the object. Additionally or alternatively the safety zone data may comprise data determining safety zones around the machine E and/or the tool 3. The safety zone data for the machine E and/or the tool 3 may be either fixedly stated or editable.
The destination location for the object may for example determine the intended final or temporary position where the object is intended to be placed to, the control system CS either operating automatically the machine E and the tool 3 for hauling the object or only assisting the operator 9, if necessary.
The receiving unit RU may for example comprise a keyboard and/or a pointer for proving means to input the information disclosed above.

The safety zones around at least one of the object, the tool 3 and the machine E may be different at different times, such as when the object is approached or when the object is already hauled.
According to an embodiment of the control system CS, the receiving unit RU further comprises receiving instructions regarding a gripping point GP the object to be gripped at, and that the detecting means DM further comprises instructing means IM for instructing a control unit CU and/or an operator 9 to move the tool 3 to take a grip at the object at the instructed gripping point GP and/or to move the object gripped to the destination location inputted. The gripping point GP provides a specific point where the object may be gripped to in view of endurance of the object and/or optimal behaviour of the object when it is hauled with the machine E. The instructing means IM may include for example a selected automatically operating operation mode or an operating mode informing the operator 9 to control the machine E and/or the tool 3 in a specific way. The instructing means IM may comprise directional lines or arrows guiding the direction where to move the tool to take a grip at. Additionally the tool in it's current position may be displayed with the guiding directional lines or arrows. Alternatively or additionally the instructing means may comprise chain of commands that may be run for example by a single button or switch or the like that may be interrupted if desired, for example, by stopping the pressing of the button.

According to an embodiment the group of object may comprise a selection of different type of objects with regards for example to size or intended purpose of use of the objects. According to another embodiment the group of objects may comprise a number of similar objects with similar characteristics without any significant differences between individual objects. According to a further embodiment the group of objects may comprise similar kinds of objects but at least some of them being specifically individualized for example on the basis of specific accessories installed or to be installed to the object or on the basis of the intended location where the object is intended to be finally located at the work site WS.
This object detection and selection may be based for example on shape and/or size recognition of the objects or in view of specific object identifiers 21 attached to the objects and the corresponding object data input to an information model IFM possibly forming part of the work site 3D model. The object identifiers 21 may be based on RDIF, barcode or near-field-communication (NFC) technology, or any other technology carrying out the same purpose than the previously mentioned or any combination of these technologies. The information model IMF may also comprise information about a storage place of the objects at the work site WS and a placement where the objects are intended to be finally located to for their actual purpose of use at the work site WS. The control system CS may be configured to determine, on the basis of the data in the information model IMF, the object to be needed next and either to control the machine E or to assist the operator 9 to collect the object from the storage place and to haul and possibly install it to the position where the object is intended to be used at the finished work site WS.
