Abstract
A solution for avoiding errors during the seed-metering process in planters comprises the following: autonomous electricity generation to power a monitoring system; monitoring the seed loading in a seed meter (pre-sensor); monitoring clogging of the seed meter by seeds (post-sensor); monitoring obstructions in the seed duct (post-sensor); processing the monitoring data; transmitting the processed data wirelessly to a central monitoring unit for follow-up and decision-making by an operator. A solution is provided for avoiding errors during the seed-metering process in planters, allowing the operator of the machine to be automatically alerted immediately after the error occurs, and also for permanently monitoring the quality of the planting process by means of a wireless data transmission system powered by an autonomous electric unit, dispensing with external batteries and power cables.
