How Does Positioning And Navigation Enable Intelligent Operation Of Agricultural Machinery?

Have you ever thought that agricultural equipment could also achieve precision farming operations like self-driving cars? This will be inseparable from a key technology - multi-sensor combined positioning and navigation!

Intelligent control algorithm ensures smoother automatic steering

The power source is a DC motor. The adaptive weighted fusion estimation algorithm of heading Angle and the Kalman filtering algorithm of position information are combined to establish an automatic steering control system.

Visual navigation and clear path tracking are visible

The deep integration of Geographic Information System (GIS) technology with the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) navigation control system can display the precise position and driving route of agricultural machinery in real time. Meanwhile, the operation data is automatically recorded, providing data support for the subsequent experimental data analysis.

Multi-sensors work together to make positioning more accurate

1. Sub-meter DGPS: High positioning accuracy, meeting the demand for centimeter-level accuracy in precision agriculture; It has strong anti-interference ability and can maintain a stable signal even in complex environments such as construction sites, dense farmlands, and muddy fields.

2. Electronic compass: It can detect the running direction of agricultural machinery in real time. The heading measurement is more reliable and it is an indispensable core sensor in agricultural navigation systems.

3. Micro-mechanical gyroscope: It can sense the turning Angle of the fuselage and prevent sudden deviation. When used in conjunction with an electronic compass, it maintains short-term heading accuracy when GPS signals are lost, ensuring the continuous and reliable operation of the agricultural machinery autonomous driving system.

4. Photoelectric proximity speed sensor: It can accurately measure the traveling speed of agricultural machinery in real time, providing reliable speed data for the autonomous driving system and ensuring the precise tracking of the operation path.

Conclusion:

Multi-sensor integrated positioning and navigation system, can be applied to planter, harvester, transplanter and other agricultural equipment, so that it has the "automatic driving" ability.At the same time, improve the accuracy of operations, reduce the labor intensity of farmers, and promote the development of agriculture towards automation and intelligence!
