CAN-Based Parallel Guidance System for Agricultural Machinery

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to develop a CAN-based parallel guidance system for small agricultural machinery. The system consisted of field computer, light bar and DGPS receiver. The field computer was developed using PC/104 CPU module, running on the embedded real-time operation system customized by a special development tool. Single chip and CAN controller were selected for guidance light bar design, which used a row of indicator LEDs to guide drivers. Field computer and guidance light bar communicated with each other based on CAN bus. The guidance software running on the field computer was designed in object-oriented manner by integrating embedded GIS development kit. In field test, the average of offline distance was 0.452 meter. The lowest percentage overlap and skip were 3.64% and 3.82% respectively. Results showed that this kind of guidance system was suitable for small-size machinery and could provide effective guidance aid for field operation.
