The design of the two tractors Case IH Magnum and New Holland T8 NHDrive help the vehicle is not dependent on the human in the process of farming.
Although some CNH Industrial tractors previously had self-steering, the new product could be operated by remote control technology or a navigation system without the operator in the cockpit.
Devices that use satellite navigation (GPS) technology, aerial laser scanning (LiDAR), and cameras to work automatically. Farmers simply control, change paths, track them remotely through software on a computer or tablet.
Both tractors are equipped with transmission and shock absorbers like other conventional vehicles.
