Global Positioning System and Telematics [Automotive Electronics]

The users can integrate John Deere´s GreenStar GPS-guided farm equipment onto vehicle platforms that now include Case IH Magnum and MX Series Tractors. John Deere´s AutoTrac RowSense Universal System is a GPS-guidance option for the farm combines designed for customers who grow corn and run older or non-John Deere machines. It uses both GPS-based and mechanical-feeler input data to accurately guide a combine through the rows of corn. It reduces operator fatigue, and it allows operators to more efficiently harvest downed corn and harvest in curve-pass conditions, while it helps the machine to operate at peak efficiency throughout the day.
