If you REALLY want farmers to use it, make it OPEN SOURCE.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7oxLIP1RRo here's a whole episode about grain bin rescue training. They raised $60,000 for first responders in their grain bin safety campaign.
Yes some individuals care less than they should. But every job has some people who are smart enough to value their own safety. And those people will seriously consider any device the significantly increases safety.
Is it really an amount of "care", or that some people just have an ability to not get bogged down by the scary stuff. There would be no X-Games at all if we were all wired the same. There are people that voluntarilly get off of their motorcycle at the apex of their jump to score some extra points. That's beyond insane to me, but to them it's part of the job.
This is just a fancy way of calling people stupid because they don't do what you want.
Literally every subject you can think of is inundated with people complaining that the common man doesn't care enough or isn't doing it right.
"nice boat you've got there"
-no financial planner ever
Not people, humans, I'm sure some non-humans can get this right.
And it's not that they don't do what I want, they don't do what they want.
If farmers aren't already using those, why would they buy this?

And I highly doubt half of those people were driving old cars with no seat belts.
If people can’t be arsed to use a simple safety tool it’s going to be a hard sell to build a robot.
Better would be to build a silo that has safety features built in and make it competitive on price.
