At CES 2025, John Deere announced new autonomous machines to support customers in agriculture, construction, and commercial landscaping amidst labor shortages. Innovations from the company include the Autonomous 9RX Tractor for Large-Scale Agriculture; the Autonomous 5ML Orchard Tractor for Air Blast Spraying; the 460 P-Tier Autonomous Articulated Dump Truck (ADT) for Quarry Operations; and the Autonomous Battery Electric Mower for Commercial Landscaping.
"Our agriculture, construction, and commercial landscaping customers all have work that must get done at certain times of the day and year, yet there is not enough available and skilled labor to do the work," said Jahmy Hindman, Chief Technology Officer at John Deere, "Autonomy can help address this challenge."
John Deere first unveiled its autonomous technology at CES 2022, and the second-generation autonomy kit introduces the next generation with advanced computer vision, AI, and cameras to help the machines navigate their environments.
