Working
together with Cultinova, a leading provider of digital solutions to the
controlled environment agriculture industry, Experior developed an IoT driven
scalable indoor farm workflow and data management system.
The system can connect to a wide variety of sensors used in indoor growing
environments, such as temperature, humidity, CO2, air-velocity, soil moisture,
pH, electrical conductivity, flow, and nutrient tank level and feed the data to
Cultinova-365, Cultinova's web-based workflow management service. Additionally,
the system can control a wide variety of infrastructure found in vertical
farms, such as LED lighting, pumps and valves based upon the results.
The system allows indoor farm operators to better understand and optimise their
indoor farming operations while providing a high level of visibility to the
associated supply chain. Furthermore, gathered data is used as part of
automated e-auditing functions with external 3rd-party certification bodies.
