BCS Group introduces artificial intelligence in its range of specialised tractors and presents theAI-Tractor: the intelligent tractor.
 
The artificial intelligence, through the advanced control of numerous functions of the tractor, optimises the vehicle’s performance and improves the operator’s driving comfort, guaranteeing maximum safety in the various conditions of use and, at the same time, reducing fuel consumption and wear and tear of the machine.
 
The system, entirely designed and developed by BCS Group, intelligently optimises the use of the tractor’s electro-hydraulic reverser, clutch and brakes. By means of a series of electronic sensors, the system continuously analyses the tractor’s operating status, the environment surrounding it (for example, if it is on flat ground or on a slope) and interprets the manoeuvre being performed by the operator on the clutch pedal. The artificial intelligence intervenes by automatically selecting the most appropriate rule of engagement for the situation and supports the operator in completing the manoeuvre.
 
The benefits are numerous:
engagement times are reduced and the work performance is high and constant throughout the day. the operator concentrates more on the work in the field, rather than on driving the vehicle.
fuel consumption, emissions and wear and tear of parts of the clutch are reduced.
