BoomPilot™ Automatic Boom Section Control
Automatic Boom Section Control
for your GPS Lightbar System
BoomPilot is a quick and easy addition to almost any lightbar guidance
system. Leverage your GPS guidance investment by adding BoomPilot
and take advantage of the latest in sprayer automation. With the
GPS data provided by your existing guidance system, BoomPilot will
automatically switch off sprayer boom sections when they enter a
previously applied area.
BoomPilot records the GPS location of the applied areas in your field. When
a section of your sprayer boom overlaps one of these areas, that section is
switched off automatically, and then switched back on when it re-enters
an unapplied area. This automation is useful on point rows, on curved
rows, and even at the end of each pass. Reduced overlap saves on material
inputs, fuel and time, and operator stress.
