Tersus Releases Auto Steer Solution to Promote the Precision Agriculture Transformation of Machines at Farmland


Tersus GNSS Inc. (“Tersus”), a leading GNSS RTK manufacturing company released its brand new AutoSteer solution recently. The AG960 AutoSteer System will accelerate the application of autopilot for precision agricultural machinery and thus, to enhance and optimize operational accuracy and productivity for modern farmers. 
AG960 AutoSteer System


The AG960 AutoSteer System is an autopilot solution for agricultural machinery. It represents the best technological combination of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and automation. By integrating high-precision navigation RTK receiver and software, it makes agricultural machines operate in accordance with the pre-set planning path achievable. The whole system is comprised by GNSS antenna, vehicle display panel, high-precision positioning receiver, hydraulic valve (steering wheel, optional), steering sensor, etc. With precise GNSS guidance, the hydraulic system of agricultural machinery is steered by vehicle controller. Then agricultural machines can operate align with the set route automatically and graphical details will be displayed on screen. It is easy to use and applicable for each working cycle of agriculture, such as soil tillage, plow, ditch, ridge, seed, spray, harvest, etc.

Henry Peng, application consultant of Tersus Precision Agriculture Solution, said, “Taking one step beyond centimeter-level operation accuracy, Tersus AG960 applies advanced RTK positioning in the autopilot controller. The solution will bring about a paradigm shift in the way that farming vehicle works and will improve their operational quality and productivity. In addition to tractors, sprayers, mowers and other agricultural machines will witness major changes as well. “Tersus plans to launch a series of solutions that meet the varied requirements of different farming machines. The AG960 has first been commercially deployed in China, and will be further rolled out in other regions around the world, where it will help modern farmers go hassle-free in their daily work and produce more with less”, said Xiaohua Wen, founder and CEO of Tersus.

It is laid out with visualized toolbars and logical icons to easily handle GNSS data processing, baseline processing and network adjustment, etc. It is the software set to import, update and analyze data effectively.  Watch the video to know how to do data processing after static surveying data collection with NeoRTK.  Learn more, click here .  Inquiry, click here . 

How to Use Oscar to Collect Static Data for A Given Length of Time

Usually, we need to collect static data for a given length of time, for example, 2 hours. In the past, the surveyor had to record the start time and keep an eye on the clock all the time. The function of setting the static collection duration in Oscar GNSS Receiver can solve this problem. When setting the static survey, the surveyor only needs to enter the duration time, then start it, and no more attention will be required. When the time is up, Oscar will automatically stop recording, with no fewer or more data. Now we show you how to set the Oscar static collection duration on the OLED display of Oscar. 1. Turn on the Oscar, press the Power ON/OFF button and Function (FN) button, and go to Mode Config -> Static. The default option of Static is OFF, and you can press the Function (FN) button to switch it to “Auto” or “Manual”. 2. Go to Duration to set the collection time, for example, 120 minutes. 3. Set other options, then choose “Confirm”, and it will start to collect st...

What is CORS network? How to connect to CORS network with external Bluetooth module and mobile phone?

A CORS is a Continuously Operating Reference Station. The CORS is an appealing way to do RTK due to its convenience and large coverage area. While Tersus Precis-BX305 currently does not support build-in NTRIP client feature. An alternative way to connect CORS network is employing external Bluetooth module and a cellphone. Here is a detailed procedure about how to connect to CORS Network with Precis-BX305 board.  Demonstration of connecting Precis BX305 to CORS Network Hardware & Software Requirement Precis-BX305 GNSS antenna GNSS antenna cable  External Bluetooth module Bluetooth cable Cell phone (android system) 5V DC charger Software required Ntrip client (free android apps)    Connect to CORS Network Please follow below steps.  Connect GNSS antenna to Precis-BX305. Connect external Bluetooth module to either COM1 or COM2 of the board Connect to power supplier and plug in/turn on the power Turn on the Bluetooth of the mobil...
