Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In accordance with an example embodiment, a system for controlling a work tool for a utility vehicle, the system comprising the work tool, one or more movement mechanisms coupled with the work tool, an imaging apparatus, and a controller, wherein the controller is configured to apply the work tool to a surface during movement of a utility vehicle, wherein the work tool is in a first position exerting a first pressure towards the surface, capture, by the first imaging apparatus, a first image of the surface proximate the work tool, evaluate, by a processor, the first image to determine an area of the surface affected by the work tool, and adjust, by the one or more moving mechanisms, the work tool to a second position exerting a second pressure towards the surface, based on the evaluation of the first image.
