Abstract
Agricultural vehicles are complex machines which are used in a wide range of applications. To improve system performance and support operators a number of driver assistance systems have been developed and introduced in the recent past. This article describes a selection of driver assistance systems for agricultural tractors. The main focus is on handling assistance systems, process assistance systems, and automated steering systems which are state of the art in the agricultural industry today. The article closes with an outlook on highly automated vehicles, which is one focus area right now in the industry to further automate working processes.
