John Deere Paves Its Sustainability Journey With Technology – Agweb Powered by Farm Journal

Posted: February 28, 2022 at 8:27 pm

For a second year, John Deere has released a sustainability report to highlight its milestones so far and state its goals for the future.

Deere CEO John May explains the company has launched its approach called Leap Ambitions to align business goals and sustainability goals. This is after the company reorganized with its Smart Industrial strategy which brought its business sectors closer to its customers.

Quite frankly, introducing this amount of change during such a dynamic period, it felt risky at times. But I've come through it convinced more today than ever it was absolutely necessary to position our company, for the opportunity ahead of us, and energize our team to achieve new levels of performance, May said during the companys quarterly results call in February 2022.

The strategy is propelling the business to reach the sweet spot when sustainability, productivity, and profitability overlap for its business and the business of its customers.

For its production ag and precision ag business, John Deere is targeting measurable gains in how it can use technology to reach those sustainability goals.

Than Hartsock, Director, Corn & Soybean Production Systems at John Deere, says, As we continue to bring technology based solutions to producers what's exciting about our part of the industryproduction agriculture and precision agricultureis there such strong alignment between the profitability of a farm and the sustainability of that farm as well. Theres overlap for the intersection of it's good for the farm, it's good for the good for the environment, and ultimately it's more profitable for the farmer at the end of the day.

Hartsock outlines three ways John Deere thinks of sustainability in relation to its products:

In one year, the company increased the connected machines in its network by 100,000. And it upped engaged acres by 80 million.

By 2026, the company wants to add another 185 million engaged acres.

To bring more effective technology to customers faster, in the past two years John Deere aligned its technology under one central Chief Technology Officer.

John Deere says it will make investments in four technologies to strengthen its capabilities in:

Tangible technologies include the full autonomous 8R and chisel plow pairing introduced in January 2022, and the forthcoming See & Spray Ultimate, which will provide in-season precision herbicide applications reducing the amount applied by more than two-thirds and saving more than $30 per acre and more than 2,300 gallons of contact herbicides per year. Also, at the beginning of 2022, John Deere announced its investment to become the majority owner of Krisel Electrican Austrian battery company focused on high-density, rechargeable power units.

John Deere will work to introduce new technologies as well as innovations that can be enabled on its existing equipment. Hartsock gives examples of machines being outfitted from the factory for technologies as well as performance upgrade packages such as are currently available for planters and sprayers.For dramatic adoption of precision ag solutions, it starts with value for the customer. And if that's not there, that we don't invest in it, and we don't have a product to sell, he says.

With more embedded technologies delivering value to customers, John Deere is starting to shifts its business model stating the goal of having 10% of revenues by 2030 be recurring revenueor subscription based. Company officials say this aligns its business with the value customers realize in use of the equipment. And they give autonomy as an example.

We've been working on autonomy for the last few years and always knew always knew it would offer significant customer value, May said. The response we got from our dealers and our customers was even greater than we imagined. The need for autonomy is here today. The demand for the solution is real.

When I look ahead. I see a long and exciting runway of opportunity, Hartsock says. In the last year and a half we've made a double down commitment on the opportunity to bring technology and digital solutions integrated with the machines and the implements that do the work every pass across the field.

He says we are on the cusp of managing every crop at the plant level and layering that with every pass every crop production cycle, the opportunity is growing, but time is imminent.

Every season that we miss, in having the next generation See & Spray solution or the next generation automation or even the acres still today that maybe don't get the full benefit from section control or Exact Emerge, I would get these technologies to the acres as quickly as I possibly could, he says.

Hartsock says farmers can expect to see four things from John Deere in the next year and beyond.

We will continue to work to ultimately create solutions for farmers that make outcomes previously not possible, he says. With the problems we are trying to solve and the digital connectivity we are looking to provide, we are confident how valuable they can be to farmers on nearly every acre that gets farmed.

Role of Technology in Swimming: The Good and Bad – Swimming World Magazine

Role of Technology in Swimming: The Good and Bad

By Josie Wise, Swimming World Intern

Touchpads, meet management software, heart rate monitoring, underwater cameras all are technological advancements that have been brought to swimming. As with anything in the world, swimming has not remained a stagnant sport in terms of how it operates. It seems like every year, theres a new piece of equipment to be bought or a new gadget to install in your pool area. Some, if not most, of these advancements have made huge impacts on the sport. We tend to go through life without noticing them, but what if we stopped to consider the role technology plays in swimming?

There are volunteers behind the blocks at almost every swim meet with two backup stopwatches ready to go in case the touchpads are faulty. A common game that these timers like to play to pass the time at long meets is seeing which watch can get closest to the touchpads time. What the timers are doing in these cases is exemplifying the main purpose of touchpads: the elimination of human error.

Touchpads were a revolutionary addition to swimming. Its very difficult to imagine what swimming would be like without them. Timing would be a nightmare, with constant disputes over biased timers or incorrect numbers. Records wouldnt be measured to the hundredth of a second, at least not with complete accuracy. Olympic medals would be constant controversies. Look at the famous race between Michael Phelps and Milorad Cavic in the 100 butterfly at the 2008 Olympics. Chaos would have ensued if that finish had been determined by the average of a few stopwatches.

In races, a swimmer has nothing but their training to boost them through the water. However, in practice, its a different story. Equipment like paddles, fins, snorkels, kickboards, and pull buoys are the big five, the originals, the backbone of training equipment. As we learn more about the science behind swimming, new equipment gets added to that list. Tempo trainers, parachutes, resistance bands, and power racks are examples of slightly more uncommon items that assist swimmers in training.

Even though these arent all exciting electronic advancements, this equipment comes from new research and information on how to make us go faster and falls into the category of technology. At one point, goggles were a technology that swimmers didnt even use in competitive swimming until the 1970s.

On the other side of the technology world, we have advancements that dont turn out to be a good thing. One instance of this could be performance-enhancing drugs. Forms of doping have been around since as early as the times of the Ancient Greeks. As science progressed, so did the information on how to artificially enhance sports performance, which led to an unfortunate rise in usage.

Another troublesome technology upgrade came in the form of the super-suit, also nicknamed technological doping. These competition suits were designed in collaboration with NASA and led to a staggering amount of world records being broken in 2009 and 2010. Because these records had a direct correlation to the suits, regulations had to be established, and these suits were ultimately banned.

Most of the time, we can positively impact our swimming performance and experience with technology. However, there are cases where we take it a little too far. In these cases, we need to monitor what is allowed and draw the line when unjust advantages are at stake.

Shaping the future of mobility safety and technology – Cities Today

Posted: at 8:27 pm

Austin Wilson, Velodyne Lidars Director of Intelligent Infrastructure, explains how lidar (light detection and ranging) technology is evolving to improve mobility safety.

How do you think the mobility ecosystem has changed over the past five years?

We have seen smarter technology being deployed across the mobility ecosystem. Vehicles are increasingly being equipped with sensors, including lidar, that improve navigation and safety. Infrastructure is becoming more intelligent, helping to improve traffic flow efficiency, advance sustainability and protect vulnerable road users. Communication between vehicles and infrastructure is also expanding. For instance, Velodyne Lidars Intelligent Infrastructure Solution uses lidar to extract trajectory road user data around intersections to predict potential collisions, which can be used to warn connected vehicles via Vehicle to Everything (V2X) communications. Vehicle manufacturers can leverage the solutions analytics in combination with their on-board safety systems to reduce accident probability.

What kinds of partnerships do you think work best for cities looking to incorporate new transit technologies?

Collaboration is the key to a successful partnership. Companies, local governments and universities are teaming up to improve traffic and energy efficiency, road safety and air quality. For example, Velodyne is collaborating with Rutgers Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation (CAIT) to deploy our Intelligent Infrastructure Solution. CAIT will install Velodynes lidar sensors at multiple intersections in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The project will serve as a testbed for mobility data-gathering, analysis and sharing technologies that will help implement connected and autonomous vehicle systems in the future.

What areas can cities improve on when it comes to road safety and how?

There is a pressing need for smart city systems that can help improve road safety and prevent traffic accidents. 2020 was the deadliest year for US traffic crashes in over a decade, with a seven percent increase in traffic fatalities over the previous year, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This is driving cities to invest in new technologies for traffic monitoring. For instance, the city of Austin, Texas is deploying Velodyne Lidars Intelligent Infrastructure Solution to help achieve its Vision Zero goal to eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries on Austin streets.

Weve seen the Biden Administration say it is committed to investing heavily in transport infrastructure. How confident are you that the right areas will be targeted?

There is a major need to repair roads, bridges, sidewalks and more in the United States. We are optimistic that governments will use the new infrastructure bill for technological improvements that will advance the safety of road users. There is no better time to begin integrating new technologies for smart city development, including lidar solutions. The data from lidar technology provides critical information about vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists in all types of weather and environmental conditions. This can advance path planning and safety and sustainability efforts, including the reduction of congestion and fossil fuels.

How will lidar play a role in next-generation smart infrastructure development?

Lidar is game-changing technology in smart infrastructure solutions. It creates a real-time 3D map of roads and intersections, providing precise traffic monitoring and analytics. These capabilities are not possible with other types of sensors like cameras or radar. Lidar reliably collects data in any lighting or weather condition, supporting 24/7, 365-days-a-year operation. Also, lidar sensors do not identify individuals facial characteristics, a growing concern for civic applications. Lidar has an advantage in privacy over camera-only systems because lidar does not record details like hair and skin colour.

Whats next for Velodyne Lidar?

We will continue to transform infrastructure to make communities smarter and safer. Our Intelligent Infrastructure Solution has been deployed in multiple cities in North America, Europe and Asia, with more deployments expected worldwide. We are seeing how lidar technology can have an impact on the cost and effort it takes to collect traffic data. Also, the solutions AI capability is increasing the amount of data collected and improving the analysis of that data. Looking ahead, we will tap the experiences of municipalities that have adopted the Intelligent Infrastructure Solution to help new customers apply their best practices for deployment and management.

Signal Sidearm bodycam technology could be used across Hampton Roads heres how it works – WAVY.com

Posted: at 8:27 pm

Virginia Beach PD previously used the technology

by: Julie Millet

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) A Bluetooth police technology that streamlines officer body camera activation could soon be coming to several police departments across Hampton Roads, but its already been dropped by one department due to safety issues.

The technology, called Signal Sidearm, automatically activates a police officers body camera any time they pull their gun from its holster.

Currently, Suffolk Police Department uses Signal Sidearm. They denied WAVY-TVs request for an interview about how it works. At least three other departments in Hampton Roads are considering using the technology.

The Virginia Beach Police Department previously used Signal Sidearm, but dropped the technology due to safety issues.

So, we went to the Charlotte-Mecklenberg Police Department for answers about Signal Sidearm. Theyve been using the technology for about a year and a half. For officers in Charlotte, their body camera turns on not just when the officer pulls their gun, but also when they pull their taser or turn on their blue emergency lights on their car.

In a life or death situation, they dont have to think about [turning their camera on], said Capt. Mike Harris.

Theres a lot that goes through our mind when we respond to a call. Theres 15 or 20 different options that could take place good or bad, said Harris.

When Donovon Lynch was shot and killed by a Virginia Beach Police Officer but no body camera footage was available from that officer, it was made public that the Signal Sidearm devices couldnt properly fit with the departments existing holsters. The department then worked to get holsters that could accommodate the Signal Sidearm technology.

However, Safariland model holsters and their accompanying Signal technology were pulled several months later after an officers weapon fired during a struggle with a homicide suspect at a local hospital. At that time, the police chief said a potential defect with the holster presented the safety issue.

We reached out to Virginia Beach police for an update on whether they will revisit the Signal Sidearm technology. Our questions were not answered before this report was published.

Meanwhile, in Charlotte, Harris tells us Signal Sidearm goes a long way to creating accountability within his department.

Were in a time where we want to be as transparent as possible, said Harris.

It gives us the opportunity to have that interaction on a daily basis with the people we come in contact with, said Harris.

The technology initially cost the department about $200,000. It is now part of a larger contract and paid for with city funds.

Harris says the technology is invaluable if it helps his officers stay safe.

We have stress, we have things to think about, sometimes when that critical call becomes extremely dangerous, we have to laser focus to make sure we go home to our families safely, he said.
