Case Study: LACOS achieves smarter farm equipment tracking with Lantronix FOX3 telematics gateways

LACOS accelerates farm equipment telemetry with Lantronix FOX3 and 30+ years of precision farming expertise

LACOS, a Germany-based provider of precision farming solutions, faced the challenge of remotely controlling and tracking farm equipment to improve operational efficiency and eliminate paper logbooks for their manufacturing clients. To reinvent how equipment data is gathered and shared, they turned to Lantronix and implemented the FOX3 series telematics gateway.

The Lantronix solution provided secure, cellular connectivity to capture vehicle location, movement, and usage data. This enabled LACOS to accelerate their development timeline, reduce total costs by using Bluetooth LE tags instead of a telemetry unit on every implement, and quickly bring a market-ready prototype to farmers. The result is a more precise and efficient farming operation for end-users.
