Description
System for marking treated and untreated areas for agricultural applications with high working width (PATENT 20022325). The proposed system is an electronic device that includes a satellite positioning system. Its is meant to be incorporated in an agricultural tractor. The system has a microcontroller and, when in use, it collects in a memory precise geographic information about the treated areas. At the same time, it informs of whether the transverse points to the working direction have already been treated or are still untreated, referencing them to the current position and the working width.Other information
