JLT Mobile Computers Selected by Steketee for Smart Farming Precision
Agriculture Solutions to Increase Farmers' Efficiency
The Steketee partnership is an important milestone in JLT's long-term commitment
to develop rugged computer solutions for the agriculture industry
Växjö, Sweden, November 13(th), 2017 * * * JLT Mobile Computers, a leading
developer and manufacturer of reliable computers for demanding environments,
announces that it has entered into a partnership with Machinefabriek Steketee
B.V., who are using JLT VERSO(TM)+ 10 rugged computers to integrate their Smart
Farming solutions for precision agriculture. Steketee is a leading developer of
high-tech weeding and soil cultivation machines, used by arable farmers and
horticulturalists worldwide.
Leveraging its extensive experience in the agriculture industry, Steketee
develops innovative Smart Farming solutions that increase farmers' efficiency
and improve crop yields through the use of IT. Their IC-Light hoeing solution
uses a high-definition integrated camera to detect crops in the field and to
render a digital image that can be used to detect cultivated crops and enable
hoeing machine alignment with outstanding accuracy. The digital image can also
be used to measure green surfaces, capture discolorations or count crops.
Integrating the IC-Light solution with the rugged VERSO+ 10 computer from JLT
Mobile Computers brings exceptional reliability and high computing performance.
The rugged VERSO+ 10 computer deployed in Steketee cultivation solutions is
designed to withstand significant temperature changes, severe vibrations, bright
sunlight and is IP65 dust and waterproof, making it ideal for use in the
agriculture industry.
"The compact format, high performance and great resistance to wear and tear make
the rugged PCs from JLT very suitable to our needs," confirms the R&D Director
at Steketee. "The ease with which they can be mounted and dismounted in the
farmers' tractors is another great advantage as this simplifies service and
allows devices to be ported between tractors or removed at the end of the
working day to prevent theft."
Featuring the revolutionary JLT PowerTouch(TM) display technology, the VERSO+ 10
computer provides a user-friendly experience comparable to modern consumer
devices - both with a gloved and ungloved hand - while being virtually
unbreakable. The clear and bright projected capacitive touch screen makes it
perfectly readable in any conditions, including direct sunlight, enabling real-
time visualization of field mapping information right in the field.
