Today, farmers want to get the most from every piece of land, and they also want their daily tasks to be simpler and less stressful. Think about it: wouldn't it be great to know exactly how much land you've covered, every single time, without having to write anything down or worry if you've made a mistake? Now, this is a reality thanks to the FJD Acre Recording Sensor. This smart sensor is completely changing the way farmers keep track of their work, making acreage counting more accurate and easier.
In this blog, we're going to tell you all about the FJD Acre Recording Sensor. We'll explain simply how it works, why it's such a device is important for daily farming activities, and what makes it stand out compared to other sensors. By the time you finish reading, you'll also understand the technical details and specifications, giving you a full picture of just how amazing this sensor is.
FJD Acre Recording Sensor
The FJD Acre Recording Sensor is a small but mighty tool that makes tracking farming areas super easy. It's specifically designed to handle all the counting work for you, freeing up your hands so you can fully focus on driving your tractor, managing your equipment, or simply enjoying the open field.The sensor automatically detects when your farm tools, like a planter or a sprayer, are on the ground and ready to work, or when they're lifted up. It automatically starts recording the area you cover the moment your tool goes down, and stops recording when it comes up. You don't have to push any buttons or remember to write anything down.
It helps you get accurate records of your land, so you'll never have to guess how much you've covered. It also prevents mistakes, like counting areas you didn't actually work or missing spots you did. Best of all, it lets you work more comfortably because your hands are free to focus on steering and managing your tractor, not on taking notes.
Plug and play, this sensor is incredibly simple to set up. You can easily connect it to many different smart farming systems, including the navigation screens from FJDynamics and other popular brands. This makes getting started quick and hassle-free, ultimately helping your farm run much smoother and smarter.
Why Accurate Acre Recording Matters?
Knowing your exact acreage is incredibly important in farming for several key reasons. It's not just about simple record-keeping; accurate acreage data directly impacts your costs, planning, and overall success.- Cost Management: You can precisely track how much seed, fertilizer, or chemical you've used per acre. This helps you understand your costs better and avoid wasting expensive inputs. If you over-apply, you waste money. If you under-apply, your crops might not grow healthily.
- Crop Planning and Yield Estimation: Accurate records help you plan for next season, compare yields year over year, and get a better idea of your potential harvest.
- Compliance and Record Keeping: For many government programs or certifications, farmers need exact records of their operations. This sensor makes that process simple and reliable.
- Efficiency: It helps identify areas where you might be overlapping or missing spots, allowing you to fine-tune your driving and save time on future passes. You can truly see how efficient your operations are.
How FJD Acre Recording Sensor Stands Out?
Designed with advanced sensing algorithms, the FJD Acre Recording Sensor offers specific features that make it a leading sensor tool in its class:- Smart Action Detection: This sensor automatically detects what your implement is doing. This prevents wrong or missed recordings, freeing up your hands to focus on important driving tasks.
- Non-Contact Angle Sensing: Instead of old-fashioned mechanical switches that need manual control, the FJD sensor tracks the angle changes in the hitch point to figure out if your tool is working. Because it doesn't require your physical control, it gives you more accurate and dependable results.
- Industry-Grade Protection: This sensor is built tough for the real world of farming. It's made to handle vibration, dust, and rain, ensuring it works perfectly for a long time without causing problems for your system. It's truly engineered for long-term field use.
- Easy to Connect: Plug-and-play, it connects easily with your existing navigation systems and automatically shares data to start or stop recording. It works smoothly with all FJD navigation terminals and other brands, so you don't need any extra setup.
Application Scenarios
The FJD Acre Recording Sensor is versatile and can be used in a wide variety of situations where accurate acreage recording is needed. Here are some of the most common ways it can be used to make your farming smarter:- Seeding: It records the planted area as soon as your seeder or planter goes into the ground, cutting down on missed spots and the need for you to manually record.
- Fertilizing & Spraying: It's smart enough to stop counting acres when you're turning or not actually applying material. This is perfect for spreaders and sprayers, preventing false counts.
- Tillage: It stops recording when your tillage tool is lifted up, making sure your coverage data is accurate and reliable.
Understanding the Specs
The FJD Acre Recording Sensor uses advanced technology to deliver its precision. Here's a quick look at some of its key specifications and what they mean:- Measurement Range: ±1000°/s: This indicates how fast the sensor can accurately detect rotational movements. A high range means it can handle quick changes in your implement's angle.
- Static Attitude Accuracy (Roll/Pitch): 0.1° RMS: This is how precise the sensor is when it's still. A very low number like 0.1° means it's incredibly accurate in detecting tiny changes in tilt (roll) and front-to-back angle (pitch). "RMS" stands for Root Mean Square, a common way to measure accuracy.
- Low-Dynamic Attitude Accuracy (Roll/Pitch): 0.5° RMS: This shows how accurate it is when your implement is moving slowly. While slightly less precise than static, 0.5° is still excellent for real-world farming conditions.
- Update Rate: 500Hz/200Hz/100Hz (Optional): This is how often the sensor sends new information (updates) per second. A 500Hz rate means it updates 500 times a second, providing very real-time data for smooth and immediate responses. You can choose a lower rate if needed.
- Gyroscope Range: ±1000°/s (Optional ±250°/s): The gyroscope measures rotation. This range means it can handle very fast spins of your implement.
- Accelerometer Range: ±8G: The accelerometer measures acceleration forces. This indicates it can handle significant bumps and jolts common in field work.
- Resolution: 0.0076°/s (at ±250°/s range): This is the smallest change in rotation the sensor can detect. A tiny number like 0.0076°/s shows extreme sensitivity.
- Power Consumption: 0.3W: It uses very little power, meaning it won't drain your tractor's battery significantly.
- Operating Temperature: -20℃ to 70℃: This wide range means it can work in very cold winters and very hot summers, regardless of how extreme your farming conditions are.
