Patchwork Technology Limited

À propos de l'application

The BlackBox Air is Patchwork’s entry level guidance and recording system for farmers and contractors.

Features Include:
• Field Boundary Measurement
• Auto Field Recognition
• Storage of Farm, Field Names and Boundaries
• Straight and Curved Guidance
• Tilt Correction giving True Ground Positioning

BlackBox Air collects location data to enable guidance and recording only when the application is running and stores the data for transfer to a computer using a USB cable. The App requires the use of file storage permissions to enable this to work. Data collected is not used for advertising purposes.

*Requires a Bluetooth GPS receiver from Patchwork Technology that can be purchased separately*

Research shows that even on small farms, BlackBox will pay for itself within a relatively short period of time - leading to significant cost savings from that point on.

Importantly, true ground positioning comes as standard on all our models but is an expensive option on many others. Without ground correction any claims regarding accuracy levels are irrelevant.

As little as a 3 degree slope will create an error of 13 cm. By 10 degrees the error is a hugely significant 43 cm. Clearly, when operating on a slope without tilt correction, work can very quickly become highly inaccurate and a GPS system provides incorrect guidance. Irregular ground can compound the error further.

Patchwork has won many accolades for ease of use over the years for BlackBox. The BlackBox Air is no exception to this.

Listening to what UK farmers want, we have continually updated our products to remain a genuine leader in the field of precision technology. With a proven record supplying GPS to the farming industry since 1998 Patchwork continues to develop new technology for farming.
