Abstract

Processes for an autonomous grain facility are described herein. The process could include sampling and grading. For sampling, the system controls a robot to capture position data of a trailer and area data of grain, determines one or more sampling areas within the trailer, and controls the robot to obtain a sample from each of the sampling areas. For grading, the system measures data with both a near infrared sensor and a second sensor, analyzes all of the data to determine a dispositive action to be performed on the respective sample, and controls the system to perform the dispositive action.
