[QUOTE="hutchy143211, post: 7080019, member: 110394"] Hi All, I just wanted to share something I have been for a couple of months now. I got interested in raspberry pis as cheap way of creating farm hardware. This started with a sheep RFID scanner which for the cost of ~£100 can read and manage all the data about our sheep flock like a commercial system. I then moved on to a weather station and then the GPS where I am now. At the moment it's very simplistic, I can read the GPS position from the module, convert the coordinates to a UTM grid and set an A/B position. I'm starting to implement a light bar system to allow for tractor guidance with RTK level accuracy. My end goal is to use this GPS for autosteer, section control etc The system could also be used for other things such as surveying utilities such as drains, cables, etc as well as for drones . Thought I would share to get ideas, show how powerful user developed technology can be and maybe help others who also want to build their own tech. [ATTACH type="full"]900103[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
