safe control of your tractor wherever you need to be
standing while performing stationary PTO tasks. Control
engine starting and stopping, engage/disengage PTO, 2
Hydraulic functions on/off and 4 users’ customizable
functions. PTO engage and engine start have a safety
interlock, therefor they require 2 buttons to be pressed
together to perform their functions. Farmers can safely
stop all functions and shut the tractor down in seconds
with the e-stop on your remote. There is also a second
e-stop located on the electrical box inside the tractor. We
have an additional add on steering modular for bagger
and extractor use. RcFarmArm has an internal battery to
allow shut down of all controls in case of a 12v power
interruption. There are 5 indicator lights (located in the
tractor so it can be viewed from all sides) to visually alert
of what functions are being used.
The purpose of the innovation was to bring safety to
the operator of stationary PTO equipment. To have the
safety and convince of having all the tractor controls in
their hand. Rcfarmarm allows the farmer to be standing
where they need to be when operating stationary PTO
equipment, providing a safer option than climbing up
and down the tractor stairs and running back and forth to
the tractor. Thus, keeping the operator away from the
PTO shaft, where the OEM’s have placed their solution.
This is the first product that has been available to the end
user like this before.

Recon SpraySense™ is a retrofittable spray quality
monitoring solution for commercial sprayers that monitors
the flow and pressure at every nozzle tip and provides
that information to the operator via an iPad application.
The Recon SpraySense™ system tracks on-target
application and coverage of the spray operation by
incorporating machine speed, and nozzle selection, into
the per-nozzle pressure and flow performance. This
insight ensures each aspect of the operation is well
understood and enables the farmer to know if they are
applying correctly. Recon SpraySense™ is a closed system
that works across a plethora of machine types, including
self-propelled and pull behind. The only interface
requirements are a power source, the correct nozzle body
interface, and an iPad. The system provides all necessary
components for installation.
Operators do not know how each nozzle is performing
on their sprayer. All the value of these advanced machines
