Scatol8 SmartGarden3.0 is a wireless sensor network, able: - to detect temperature and humidity of the air and luminosity; - to detect temperature and moisture of the soil; - to do continuous shooting video and taking photos with a webcam; - to display the data on the dashboard locally and through the web; - to determine light sequences with variable intensity, in relation to the activities carried out; - to draw a wide range of virtual landscapes, depending on the intensity of the variables …

1. Scatol8®
SmartGarden 3.0
- Let’s take the stock of the situation -
by Riccardo Beltramo (invention, concept definition, design and implementation)
Paolo Cantore (hardware, software and construction)
Stefano Duglio (construction)
Marta Lanfranco (design, rendering and construction)

2. Bear in mind...
Scatol8® is focused on this path:

3. Modularity
The Network Scatol8® is made up of several elements:
sensors
peripheral units
coordinator
PC (Dashboard)
Internet connection
The network is made up of modules, which are composed of
different elements, in relation to different situations.
Bear in mind...

4. Demonstrators
• are simplified models of the system Scatol8®
• reproduce in small-scale elements, architecture and
functionalities of a network Scatol8®
Bear in mind...

5. Scatol8®
SmartGardenThis demonstrator was prepared
for the conference “Nutrirsi di
Paesaggio," organized in Turin on
June, 4th 2012. Presented in a
paper entitled “Environmental &
Landscape Management System
into a SMART reality: the evolution
impressed by Scatol8® for
Sustainability", it was able of:
• Detect temperature and
humidity and luminosity;
• Detect soil moisture;
• Take photos with a webcam;
• View the data on Crusc8
(Dashboard);
• Vary the light intensity as a
function of the variables.
Bear in mind...

6. Scatol8® SmartGarden3.0
has been launched in Turin, on May
2014, during the International Book
Fair 2014, in the TOSM corner
“Technological landscapes 3.0”.
It is able:
• to detect temperature and humidity
of the air and luminosity;
• to detect temperature and moisture
of the soil;
• to do continuous shooting video
and taking photos with a webcam;
• to display the data on the dashboard
locally and through the web;
• to determine light sequences with
variable intensity, in relation to the
activities carried out; and........

7. ... And to draw a wide range of virtual
landscapes, depending on the intensity of the
variables …Here are a few examples:

9. Scatol8® SmartGarden3.0
follows the guidelines of
Scatol8®:
• Green:
✴ the main body is made of plywood;
✴ the supports were obtained from a stainless steel
bar recovered;
✴ the spacers are made of plastic caps.

10. • Modularity:
✴ type and number of sensors vary according to the
requirements of use;
✴ type and number of units can be varied at
pleasure, depending on the surface and the
morphology of the garden, creating a wireless
sensor network.

11. • Accessibility:
✴ Technical drawings for the construction of the
structure, wiring diagrams, and software will be
downloadable from "Scatol8®: A Path To
Sustainability" - the Fourth Edition, to be
published
✴ microprocessors are opensource
✴ sensors and actuators are available in the
electronic marketplace

12. Scatol8® SmartGarden3.0
• is intended for:
✴ Landscape architects and agronomists who wish
to provide a service for monitoring and
maintenance of the gardens that design and
create, available in their offices or via
smartphone;
✴ Gardening enthusiasts who want to be sure of the
state of health of their green space, even when
they are away from home, via the web;
✴ All those who want to integrate their garden
irrigation system with a new functionalities to
improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the
system.

13. Scatol8® won the
“Jean-Baptiste de
Lamarck Award” at
the 2014
ICT&Consumer
electronics
International
Exhibition (SMAU)
in Turin
