THE AI ANGLE
Guiding autonomous machinery decisions and generating planting and spraying recommendationsEquipment maker CNH is deploying autonomous robots and connected software to address farm labor shortages and rising operating costs. These systems use sensors and machine vision to execute full tasks like spraying, mowing, and tilling. Operators must now adapt to managing data across mixed machinery brands while reducing field inputs.
THE TEACHING ANGLE
Engineers face a trade-off between packing machinery with complex hardware for harsh field conditions and keeping the user controls simple for operators.Read the original at therobotreport.com Generate teaching or study materials
