Technical approach

As reported

Retrofit

Bolt-on autonomy kit

Sabanto's kit retrofits any tractor without permanent modification, so farmers can switch between autonomy and manual mode with a simple button.

Software

Vehicle Mission Control

A mobile app lets farmers plan field operations (coverage patterns, spray zones, seed rates) and monitor progress in real time from anywhere.

Integration

Direct integration with implements

The system communicates with boom sprayers, spreaders and seeders, automating application rates and coverage to match field maps.
