Southern MN | In addition to what Pete said, I'll add that not only could it stop, but would probably do so a lot faster than a human would. When planting and one row is malfunctioning and not planting correctly, the human doesn't know until they see the montior and respond. The drone would greatly outperform a human in getting the tractor stopped. As far as flat tires that Pete touched on, tires would probably need sensors on them, my car has those to inform me of low air pressure.
The problem I see is the Drone will be incapable of fixing problems so human still needs to be in close range to fix things and keep it moving. From that perspective, I don't see how the drone is any different than today's tractors with a greenhorn driver (not an operator) driving them. | |
