Work vehicle, display method for work vehicle, and display system

1. A work vehicle comprising:

a memory to store a target travel route in a work field;

a sensor to detect an actual travel track of the work vehicle;

a processor unit programmed to calculate an index value indicating a degree of a deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route; and

a display to display an index-value display area and a work field including a traveled track on which the work vehicle has traveled such that a display pattern to display the traveled track is changed according to the index value, the traveled track being on the target travel route,

wherein the processor unit is programmed to display, on the display, the traveled track having one or more sections that are color-coded according to the index value,

wherein the processor unit is programmed to display, on the display, a first section of the one or more sections in a first color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and a second section of the one or more sections in a second color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route,

wherein the processor unit is programmed to display, on the display, the index value in the index-value display area, the index value including directional indicators and a numerical value indicating the degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and

wherein the processor unit is programmed to display, on the display, when the work vehicle is travelling in the first section, the index value in the index-value display section and the first section are both displayed in the first color, and, when the work vehicle is travelling in the second section, the index value in the index-value display section and the second section are both displayed in the second color.

2. The work vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the sensor includes a vehicle direction calculator to calculate a direction of travel of the work vehicle, and

wherein the index value indicates a directional deviation which is a deviation of the direction of the travel of the work vehicle from a direction of the target travel route.

3. The work vehicle according to claim 1 ,

wherein the sensor includes a vehicle position calculator to calculate a position of the work vehicle, and

wherein the index value indicates a positional deviation which is a deviation of the position of the work vehicle from the target travel route.

4. The work vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the display is to display a remaining time until the work vehicle finishes traveling along a whole of the target travel route.

5. A display method for a work vehicle, comprising:

detecting an actual travel track of the work vehicle;

calculating an index value indicating a degree of a deviation of the actual travel track from a target travel route in a work field, the target travel route being stored in a memory; and

displaying an index-value display area and a work field including a traveled track on which the work vehicle has traveled such that a display pattern to display the traveled track is changed according to the index value, the traveled track being on the target travel route, wherein the traveled track is displayed having one or more sections that are color-coded according to the index value,

wherein the traveled track is displayed having a first section of the one or more sections in a first color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and a second section of the one or more sections in a second color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route,

wherein the index value is displayed in the index-value display area, the index value including directional indicators and a numerical value indicating the degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and

wherein, when the work vehicle is travelling in the first section, the index value in the index-value display section and the first section are both displayed in the first color, and, when the work vehicle is travelling in the second section, the index value in the index-value display section and the second section are both displayed in the second color.

6. A work vehicle comprising:

storage means for storing a target travel route in a work field;

sensing means for detecting an actual travel track of the work vehicle;

calculation means for calculating an index value indicating a degree of a deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route; and

display means for displaying an index-value display area and a work field including a traveled track on which the work vehicle has traveled such that a display pattern to display the traveled track is changed according to the index value, the traveled track being on the target travel route,

wherein the display means is configured to display the traveled track having one or more sections that are color-coded according to the index value,

wherein the display means is configured to display a first section of the one or more sections in a first color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and a second section of the one or more sections in a second color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route,

wherein the display means is configured to display the index value in the index-value display area, the index value including directional indicators and a numerical value indicating the degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and

wherein the display means is configured to display, when the work vehicle is travelling in the first section, the index value in the index-value display section and the first section are both displayed in the first color, and, when the work vehicle is travelling in the second section, the index value in the index-value display section and the second section are both displayed in the second color.

7. A display system comprising:

a memory to store a target travel route of a work vehicle in a work field;

a sensor to detect an actual travel track of the work vehicle;

circuitry configured to calculate an index value indicating a degree of a deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route; and

a display to display an index-value display area and a work field including a traveled track on which the work vehicle has traveled such that a display pattern to display the traveled track is changed according to the index value,

wherein the display is configured to display the traveled track having one or more sections that are color-coded according to the index value,

wherein the display is configured to display a first section of the one or more sections in a first color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and a second section of the one or more sections in a second color based on a first degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route,

wherein the display is configured to display the index value in the index-value display area, the index value including directional indicators and a numerical value indicating the degree of deviation of the actual travel track from the target travel route, and

wherein the display is configured to display, when the work vehicle is travelling in the first section, the index value in the index-value display section and the first section are both displayed in the first color, and, when the work vehicle is travelling in the second section, the index value in the index-value display section and the second section are both displayed in the second color.
