Unmanned tractors to increase farms profitability

The tractor uses a digital map of the field, with its computer vision system and sensors helping the vehicle to avoid objects in the absence of such a map.

A prominent software developer in Russia has launched the first tests on unmanned tractors with computer vision systems.

The tractor uses a digital map of the field, with its computer vision system and sensors helping the vehicle to avoid objects in the absence of such a map.

It detects objects ranging in size from 10 to 15 centimeters from a distance of 15 to 20 meters.

Experts hope the technology will increase the profitability of Russian farms because the tractors can work round the clock if necessary.
