Precision agricultural seed delivery system

A control system for an agricultural machine, the control system comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the control system to:
• generate a motor control signal that controls a motor to drive one or more of:
• a seed meter configured to meter seeds, or
• an active seed transport mechanism to transport seeds along a transport route;
• receive a motor position signal representing a position of the motor;
• receive a seed presence signal generated by a seed sensor indicative of seed presence in one or more of the seed meter or the active seed transport mechanism;
• and
• control the agricultural machine based on the motor position signal and the seed presence signal.

A drive system for an agricultural seed system, the drive system comprising:

• a motor having an output shaft configured to drive one or more of:
• a seed meter configured to meter seeds, or
• an active seed transport mechanism to transport seeds along a transport route,
• wherein the drive system is configured to:
• generate a motor position signal representing a position of the motor;
• and
• receive a motor control signal that controls the motor, the motor control signal being based on the motor position signal and a seed presence signal indicative of seed presence in one or more of the seed meter or the active seed transport mechanism.
