The finalists

DuxAlpha combines 3D track planning, digital networking, cloud-based operations management, and automatic documentation in a brand-independent, retrofittable system. It maps the terrain in three dimensions and calculates track lines with an accuracy of up to 2.5 cm. Tractors, attachments, and sensors continuously exchange data, compare positions and tasks in real time, and can work together as a network. The system records every work step and compiles the documentation in the cloud. Operators control the system via a terminal or app; retrofit solutions also integrate older machines. DuxAlpha connects technology from different manufacturers via the open FarmLink interface. In combination with the NX NextMotion drive-by-wire system from Arnold NextG, the solution automates processes including trips between the farm and the field and aims to enable road-legal use without a safety driver.
