Abstract

Agriculture is shifting from farmers manually operating machines to monitoring autonomous machines. Thus, the task of a farmer is fleet management and taking care of safe operation. Situational awareness during the operation is important. Augmented reality (AR) is a powerful tool for visualizing information in real-Time. To demonstrate the use of AR in agricultural fleet management, in this paper we present a novel AR system to help the farmer supervise the operation of two autonomous agricultural machines. The paper discusses the requirements for AR application, and we present the architecture of the system and the results of a demonstration carried out in a test field.
