Agriculture & Farming
ToughSonic® sensors play a vital role in modern agriculture and farming, enabling precision and automation.
ToughSonics measure water storage in reservoirs, ponds, or tanks to optimize irrigation. In crop management, sensors monitor plant height and growth, and aid in harvesting processes.
They also control boom height on sprayers, ensuring efficient and even application of fertilizers and pesticides. Furthermore, they can detect obstacles and aid in navigation for autonomous agriculture vehicles.
As global demand grows for efficient crop production solutions, ultrasonic sensors rise to the challenge of capturing liquid level and distance measurements in tanks, outdoors, and environmental applications—plus so much more.
For non-contact measurement needs in the agricultural industry, choose Senix’s ToughSonic ultrasonic sensors.
