developed a low-cost and low-energy IoT (internet of things) system which
can transmit early detection notifications about infestation of a tree.
The Agrint approach couples an extremely high sensitivity sensor that can
pick up on the subtle vibrations of larvae as they begin to tunnel through
the tree with a unique algorithm that analyzes the data for specific patterns.
This information is continuously fed to the cloud and updated to leverage
big data and help users stay tuned into behavioral trends and analysis.
The "IOtree" solution can be used to protect date palms, ornamental palms,
oil palms, and coconut palms. This allows farmers to increase the efficiency of
pesticide management and save trees from damage, which eliminates costly
replacement expenses. Agrint has already deployed their technology to places
like Jordan, where it is being used to help remove trees local farmers would
not normally know are infested.
A Powerful Partnership
When Agrint was looking for an IoT partner who could provide them with
reliable and secure technology, they chose MultiTech. MultiTech provides
reliable devices, outstanding support, and advanced cloud services for free.
Tomar Touanti, CRO of Agrint, notes how the gateway's "…features and
adjustability save us money."
This partnership will help prevent the spread of difficult invasive species across
the globe. The application of IoT technology to support agriculture and
biological processes is only just beginning. Ideas like the IOtree will allow for
previously impossible detection of animals, plants, and pathogens that could
harm Earth's biodiversity and cost billions to remove.
