Planter Monitor - OutFarming.com

Sorry you couldn’t get hold of me quickly. I don’t check the forum often. I have built a PCB for a 16 row planter using UDP. Other connections with USB are possible. Yes, you can watch my video on YouTube. Search “AgOpenGPS planter monitor”. Try contacting me at jim@outfarming.com. I’d like to talk to the development group about where to go from here. Should this be added to a base release? Integrated into each AOG release in a separate Github? Is it desirable?

Maybe @admins could help

would love to have your planter monitor in AOG ! wanted to add a monitor to an old planter since years and this would be the perfect place to start from

I haven’t heard from anyone on the AOG team as to whether there is a desire to integrate this into the project or not. I will work on a way to deploy it in the next month or so. Maybe a separate GITHUB entry? The challenge would be to stay up with AOG releases.

I think as long as it’s integrated with the stable releases they would be great!

Would love your planter monitor with AOG as well! Would it be able to map the population as well? Thank you for your efforts!

Population, variety, planting date with geo-references would be desirable but not there yet.

Just wondering what the current situation on this project is? I would be really interested in getting that going. I’m at the point of upgrading my planter monitor and I’m getting an aog going on my planter tractor. So this is like the perfect time…

I am also upgrading an old white planter and would love a monitor on AOG. Hopefully you can get one implemented.

I have been reading through this forum, and this has my curious. @jkpoyzer it sounds like you were trying to re-write your code in visual studio to work with AOG. Out of curiosity do you currently have code set up to run in C++ or Arduino? I’m running my AOG on a lattepanda delta 3 instead of a windows tablet and it has a built in Arduino microcontroller onto the board, which is why i chose it. I’m wondering if with using that board it would be easy to run both without at code changes, just have both applications open. AOG one of the panda’s montiors, and then the planter monitor on the other one.
