Published purpose

The goal of this project is to develop production-ready autonomously driving hay bailers that will be powered through a tractor. When cutting hay, the bailer will autonomously follow windrows. When driving on roads, the bailer will automatically follow the tractor to make transportation of the system easier to operate and safer.This bailer will be pulled by a tractor that will allow for two bailers to be pulled by one tractor, thus reducing the fuel and greenhouse gases used during the hay season.
