The document summarizes a soil monitoring solution that measures various soil parameters like pH, temperature, EC, moisture, and NPK at multiple depths using a single device. It analyzes competitors and notes the solution measures more parameters like air temperature at more depths than alternatives. It also offers remote device configuration via an API, integration with third party systems, data visualization through a web dashboard, and secure communication using technologies like JWT tokens. Pricing starts from $500 depending on the device model and depth of analysis.
3. Solution
● Device measures main soil parameters including pH, temperature, EC,
moisture, and NPK as well as air temperature, humidity, and luminosity
● Measures soil parameters on up to 7 depths starting from 5cm with 10cm step
● Dust and waterproof (IP67 protection standard)
● API for integration with 3rd party services, custom enterprise solutions, etc.
● Hardware layer security (microchip for secure connection with Google Cloud)
● Multiple options for wireless communication: GSM(2G/3G/4G), LoraWAN
● Built-in solar panel for increasing operation time on years ahead
