Farm Works Software Introduces Low Cost Personal Computing Device For Producers

Farm Works Software is releasing a personal computing device to be used in a truck, tractor, sprayer or ATV. The Rugged Tablet PC, also known as Titan RT, uses the latest technology and software for field applications. The device allows growers to use their existing GPS receiver along with the Farm Works Software “Mate” programs in order to perform a wide range of tasks in the field.

The large-screened Rugged Tablet PC has a nearly 8.5-inch wide computer screen. The device is designed to handle the heat, cold, rain, dust, and mud.

Combined with Farm Works Software programs, the affordable Rugged Tablet PC provides a low-cost option for growers to use GPS for mapping field boundaries, scouting problem areas, guidance, soil sampling and variable rate control.

Crop record-keeping can also be integrated for generating application maps of seed varieties, fertilizer, and chemical usage. The hardy device utilizes a convenient touch screen and built-in device ports that support a wide-range of GPS receivers and variable rate controllers.

The device has mounting accessories that make it easy to affix to any vehicle cab or ATV. Data may also be easily transported to a personal computer from the device.
