Case IH is launching SenseApply technology in the US, an economical and adaptable automated Live variable rate application solution. SenseApply consists of a single cab-mounted camera system that offers multi-season uses.
“SenseApply offers flexibility with a range of application methods that were previously unavailable in a single solution,” said Leo Bose, application equipment customer segmentation lead at Case IH. “It is also a cost-effective solution with no annual subscriptions or per acre fees, driving efficiency and profitability for a grower.”
Multi-Application uses include:
Selective spray
- Green-on-Brown spot spray offers upgraded weed management
- Base + Boost applies a consistent base rate over the entire boom while boosting individual nozzle sections to a higher rate when passing over areas with higher weed pressure
Live Variable Rate Application (VRA)
- Burndown VRA
- Nitrogen VRA
- Harvest Aid VRA
- Plant Growth Regulator VRA
- Fungicide VRA
SenseApply technology includes lifetime Live VRA use and a one-time activation fee for Selective Spray, eliminating both per acre fees and annual fees for the life of the device. The technology is designed for simple and efficient application, at speeds of up to 25 mph, with the camera self-calibrating to the crop within the first 150 feet during Live VRA. The SenseApply camera is mounted on top of the cab to maximize field of view. It senses plant biomass and responds accordingly, depending on the application type the operator selected.
SenseApply also integrates with FieldOps and Raven Slingshot, enabling operators to connect and manage application data through their preferred platform. This integration increases overall operator efficiencies by providing real-time data analysis and decision-making capabilities, while making it easier to align with agronomist recommendations.
SenseApply is also available and as IntelliSense from CNH sister brand New Holland.
