Patchwork is well known for its farmer-friendly lightbar guidance systems that typically cost less than US$2,665. But now the Welsh firm offers a tablet-based version that comes in at less than half that price. Called Blackbox Air, it’s based on an Android app that can be downloaded from the Google Play store. This looks similar to the maker’s high...
Recent start-up Agricision takes a slightly different approach to the other systems in this group, offering a separate lightbar unit that mounts on the tractor’s bonnet. The theory is that putting this outside the cab in the centre of the bonnet helps the operator drive more accurately. This is because they don’t have to constantly adjust their foc...
Belfast-based firm Sixty-5 offers an Android app-based GPS system that comes pre-loaded onto a 18cm (7in) Samsung Tab 4 tablet. This gets its GPS fix from a 10Hz Novatel Ag-Star dome receiver mounted on the vehicle’s roof. It communicates with the tablet via Bluetooth. As with most of the systems here, this offers 20 to 30cm (8-12in) accuracy. Sixt...

Agribus-Navi offers one of the cheapest forms of guidance with its free Android app for tablets and smartphones. This is ad-supported though, so if you want to stop adverts flicking up on the screen you’ll need to buy a $60/year subscription. This is available through the Google Play store. The app offers a basic guidance system to assist with stra...
Emlid doesn’t offer a full GPS system, but it does offer a portable RTK base station that can be used with some of the other systems featured. The $799 Reach RS system is capable of connecting to a tablet or phone by Bluetooth or wifi and it will also work with various auto-steer systems. On top of that, it doubles up as a surveying and mapping too...
