Fairbury, Ill., July 30, 2021 – Farmers and ag business partners alike had the opportunity to experience a firsthand look at Raven’s new OMNiDRIVE™ driverless ag technology at an exclusive Autonomy Demo Day event that took place on July 20th.
At Jenner Precision’s OMNiDRIVE Demo Day, attendees were able to choose between attending a 9 am morning session or a 1 pm afternoon session. Sessions included a presentation on OMNi followed by an in-field demo of OMNiDRIVE. Both the Jenner Precision and Raven Applied Technology teams were available to answer questions on operational insights.
Jenner Precision is one of only two dealers in Illinois that offered a look at Raven’s newly introduced OMNi brand of autonomous solutions. This autonomous platform empowers ag professionals to perform multiple farm tasks simultaneously without a driver. OMNiDRIVE is Raven’s aftermarket technology kit that transforms existing tractors into driverless machines. It is the first farming application that allows the farmer to monitor and operate a driverless tractor from the cab of the harvester so the harvester can offload on the go, then return the tractor and grain cart to a predetermined unloading area —all without a second driver.
“Providing an event where farmers were able to see OMNiDRIVE run with their own eyes was an honor,” says Bryan Fehr, Location Manager at Jenner Precision. “Being one of only two dealers afforded this opportunity allows us to truly show the market what OMNiDRIVE can do and how it can impact anyone’s operation. “It really opens up new doors for farmers to impact their labor, efficiency – and of course their bottom lines.”
