Vehicle to vehicle (V2V) return to last fill point

This system helps agricultural vehicles, like combine harvesters, automatically return to the precise spot where they previously unloaded crops into another vehicle or container. It records the exact position of the unloading point relative to the receiving container and then uses that stored data to guide the vehicle back to the same location for subsequent unloading. The claims specify using GPS or relative positioning for this.

Why it matters: Since 2020, advancements in RTK GPS accuracy and sensor fusion for autonomous agricultural vehicles have significantly improved the precision and reliability of multi-vehicle coordination. This makes the system's ability to return to exact unloading points more robust and practical.
