Patent attributes
A level indication system includes a sensor system and a control system. The sensor system is positioned to acquire stability data regarding a stability characteristic of a vehicle at a current location. The stability characteristic includes at least one of a slope, a grade, or a jackknife angle. The control system is configured to determine whether the stability characteristic is within an operational range or a nonoperational range, provide an indication that the vehicle is reconfigurable at the current location into a state whereby the vehicle is operable at the current location in response to determining that the stability characteristic is within the operational range or an indication that the vehicle is not operable at the current location in response to determining that the stability characteristic is within the nonoperational range, and facilitate engaging a stabilization system of the vehicle in response to the stability characteristic being within the operational range.
