LIDAR LOADING SYSTEM
A loading system for a material has a grab dredger configured to selectively engage the material, where the grab dredger includes a boom and a line configured to move a grab throughout a working space. The working space includes an arc within a plane defined by a first dimension and a second dimension, where a third dimension lies perpendicular to the plane. The working space includes a minimum engagement distance and a maximum engagement distance. A Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) module can locate a material acquisition point, a material deposit point, and at least one obstacle point. A controller operates the grab dredger to move the grab within the working space to selectively engage the material. The loading system can move the material from the material acquisition point to the material deposit point while negotiating the at least one obstacle point.
