Optical flow may be carried out on a series of images captured by the camera during movement of a candidate implement. Particular pixels may be aggregated based on relative pixel motion and classifying the particular pixels as belonging to the candidate implement. A candidate implement contour may be determined based on the particular pixels classified as belonging to the candidate implement. Based upon the comparison, control signals may be output to adjust operation of at least one of a tractor and the candidate implement attached to the tractor. In some implementations, the implement or its contour may be tracked and compared to a boundary for further vehicle control or operator alerts.
