A seed sensor system determines the position of the seed relative to the seed tube as the seed passes the sensor. The position of the seed as well as the speed of the planter and the position of the seed tube above the planting furrow are used to calculate trajectory of the seed int the furrow from which the seed spacing is predicated. By sensing the seed in both X and Y directions in the seed tube, the sensor is better able to determine multiple seeds as well providing more precision to the seed population.

L'invention porte sur un système détecteur de semences qui détermine la position de la semence par rapport au tube à semences à mesure que la semence passe devant le détecteur. La position de la semence ainsi que la vitesse de la planteuse et la position du tube à semences au-dessus du sillon de plantation sont utilisées pour calculer une trajectoire de la semence dans le sillon à partir duquel l'espacement de semences est prédit. Par la détection de la semence à la fois dans les directions X et Y dans le tube à semences, le détecteur est mieux apte à déterminer de multiples semences ainsi qu'à fournir davantage de précision à la population de semences.
