1. Decision Making And Operational PlanningIn order to automatize crop farming and its processes, a number of technological and other problems have to be solved. Agricultural field robots are in our vision to fulfill operations in fields. Robots involve number of technological challenges in order to be functional and reliable, but also systems controlling these robots are to be developed. In this paper automatic crop farming is the vision, and decision making models and operational planning is discussed. Study is carried out with simulation... T. Oksanen, , |
2. Path Generation Method with Steering Rate ConstraintThe practical way to generate a reference path in path tracking is to follow an adjacent swath. However, if the adjacent swath contains sharp turnings, the reference path will eventually contain sharper turn than the tractor is able to follow. This occurs especially in the corner of a field plot when the field is driven around. In the headland, the objective is to minimize the time to reach the next swath. The commonly known method to generate the shortest path between two arbitrary... J. Backman, T. Oksanen, A. Visala |
3. Measurement of In-field Variability for Active Seeding Depth Applications in Southeastern USProper seeding depth control is essential to optimize row-crop planter performance, and adjustment of planter settings to within field spatial variability is required to maximize crop yield potential. The objectives of this study were to characterize planting depth response to varying soil conditions within fields, and to discuss implementation of active seeding depth technologies in Southeastern US. This study was conducted in 2014 and 2015 in central Alabama for non-irrigated maize (Zea mays... A.M. Poncet, J.P. Fulton, T.P. Mcdonald, T. Knappenberger, R.W. Bridges, J. Shaw, K. Balkcom |
