But it won’t come cheap. 🚜 engineering CES2022
John Deere has come a long way in its 185 years.
Nearly two centuries after it started building steel plows, the well-known farm equipment manufacturer announced at CES 2022 that it has developed technology that fully automates some tractor functions. The company didn’t unveil a fully automated tractor. Instead, it intends to produce , enabling machines farmers already own to operate without direct human supervision. The company said it would sell no more than 20 units this year. It plans to ramp up production in 2023.The new system consists of two boxes, one mounted to the front of the tractor and the other mounted at the rear. The boxes will use 12 stereo cameras and a GPS unit to collect the data necessary for the system to understand its environment and avoid hitting obstructions.
