Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to handheld control device for stationary round bale wrapper in agriculture field using cc3000 rf and iot.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The management of stationary round bale wrappers may be done effortlessly and adaptably with the help of this cutting-edge agricultural control system. It gives operators and authorized users the opportunity to quickly and simply turn the Bale Wrapper on and off both locally and remotely. A specially designed switchboard allows for fast, hands-on operation of the local control. Meanwhile, customers' convenience and accessibility are improved by the remote control feature, which they may access via an easy-to-use mobile app that is linked to the Internet.
The manual management and monitoring of Stationary Round Bale Wrappers presents a considerable problem to the agricultural business, leading to inefficiencies and a lack of real-time supervision. Many of the controls used in current systems are outdated and provide little flexibility or accessibility. The challenges posed by manual operation, including response time lags, operational mistake risk, and lack of remote monitoring capabilities, necessitate a comprehensive solution.
ES2428270T3: A method of controlling a square bale stretch wrapper, wherein: - the bale length is determined by a bale length sensor; - the crop that remains to be baled before the end of a job is anticipated by the operator; and - depending on the forecast and the length of the bale in progress, a control system ensures that all bales completed after receipt of the forecast signal exceed a predetermined minimum length at the end of the job.
