To gain a perfect insight into what is harvested in the field, AVR has integrated a digital size measurement system on the Puma 4.0 self-propelled potato harvester. This system utilizes cameras mounted on the bunker filling belt to determine potato size during harvest.
The images are processed through AVR Connect, and the gathered data can then be displayed in two ways.
The size measurement data can be displayed either as geospatial or matrix data. The geospatial data provides an overview of which potato sizes are harvested per zone in the field. The matrix structure gives an overview of the different sizes (length and width) of the potatoes as a percentage of the total harvested quantity of a harvest trip or a field. All data ranges within the matrix can be dynamically adjusted based on specific customer needs.
The AVR size measurement system allows for a fully digital size outlay of the harvested potatoes.
