The Autonomous 9RX Tractor enables farmers to focus on more important tasks. According to Agriculture.com, this system can be retrofitted onto existing tractors. The cameras correct themselves without any moving parts, so the tractor works in any condition. It works at 12mph. It uses rugged GPUs for visual processing.
