Description

OMNiPOWER 3200 is the latest model of Raven Industries’ OMNiPOWER technology, formerly known as Dot. The powered-up autonomous power platform’s U-shaped design attaches to interchangeable implements, such as a seeder, spreader, and sprayer. Enhancements to the platform include increased horsepower (200 HP compared to the original platform’s 173 HP), upgraded Cummins QSB4.5 Stage 5 Final engine, and Viper 4+ UT Display.

Drive train type

Diesel engine, hydrostatic drive

Characteristics

Engine HP 200; 40 gpm hydraulics, 15,876 kg carrying capacity, 12V power generation for auxiliary devices, onboard ISOBUS compliant computer for remote viewing, rate controller, and monitoring

Navigation system

The robot uses RTK GPS for staying within geofenced field boundary. It has 2 control systems. Primary is the GCS Tablet operating Raven Proprietary software, web based, to plan out missions on the tablet. The missions include driving direction (compass heading), swath width, travel speed, turning radius and the treatment or non-treatment of “headland” areas, as well as start and stop point. The completed mission plan is wirelessly transmitted to the OMNiPOWER for completion. Operation then proceeds autonomously.

The machine has onboard cameras for operator viewing, as well as a non-contact perception system consisting of cameras and radar sensors. The robot operator has a high range remote with e-stop as a secondary control for the robot.

The OMNiPOWER 3200 automatically stops under the following conditions:
a) e-stop is pressed
b) safety fence is tripped
c) loss of RTK GPS
d) loss of data communications on either the GCS tablet or the OMNi itself
e) loss of contact with the high range remote
f) a specific error code related to the machine operation, such as but not limited to: excessive wheel slippage, off track physical location, certain engine monitoring conditions, certain implement conditions, safe operation. A light beacon offers a visual warning that OMNiPOWER is about to move, and a horn sounds multiple times prior to movement.
