A multimodal sensing system for agricultural machines may include an agricultural machine operable in a first operating mode and a second operating mode and a sensor which is movable to adjust its field-of-view between a first field-of-view and a second field-of-view depending on the operating mode of the agricultural machine. The sensor may be configured to generate sensor data associated with the first field-of-view when the agricultural machine is operating in the first operating mode and generate sensor data associated with the second field-of-view when the agricultural machine is operating in the second operating mode. A controller may analyze the sensor data generated when the sensor has the first and second field-of-views so as to provide respective first and second output signals associated with the first and second operating modes, respectively, of the agricultural machine.
