John Deere unit GUSS plans to deploy Ouster Rev8 lidar in next-gen autonomous orchard fleet
OUST•Expanded autonomy use cases
Rev8’s native color lidar is positioned to improve performance in dust, spray, and dense vegetation, expanding autonomy use cases beyond spraying.
Use in autonomous orchard fleet
GUSS plans to use the sensors in its next Autonomous Orchard Machine Fleet to improve navigation, mapping, and obstacle detection in orchards.
Deployment targets higher precision in GPS-challenged environments, supporting remote supervision of up to eight autonomous sprayers by one operator.
Planned integration with GUSS Automation
Ouster struck a planned integration with GUSS Automation, a wholly owned John Deere subsidiary, to supply next-generation Rev8 OS0 digital lidar.
