WHY A BEACON?

Monitoring & Farm Automation Kept Simple

The perfect low cost, no-nonsense, well-engineered IoT device to support your farming needs. Ready to go straight out of the box. No data setup, no SIM costs, no assembly, no worries. Plug in your sensor, switch on the Beacon, sit back and start viewing real-time data using your mobile device, from anywhere you like.

Scalable Technology

Add technology progressively with ease, scaling up as your demands evolve.

Powerful IoT

Universal sensor inputs, multiple control outputs, Cloud & wireless communications a breeze.

Always Informed

Custom alarms and messages from your Beacon to your phone. When you want, how you want.

Robust Contruction

IP67, weatherproof, UV and water resistant, rugged product.

Enabling Boosted Productivity through On-Farm, Realtime Data & Automation

AgTech helping to maximise returns through better use of water, fuel, labour, time and more.

SOPHISTICATED AGTECH

Versatility & Scalability at Your Fingertips

Drip Irrigation Automation

Open & close valves with the Valve Irrigation Control Beacon.

Measure tank and water storage depths with the Water Level Beacon and start & stop pumps based on level.

Trigger irrigation start & stop events based on available sunlight using the Solar Radiation Beacon.

Create a network of LoRa, RF, Cat-M1 and other Beacon types, managed by a Hub and viewed anytime on EnviroDash.

Protected Cropping

Automate your greenhouse with an array of wireless sensor Beacons to control vents, fans, heating and more.

Use the EFAC as a fertigation controller with EC, pH, temperature and flow monitoring.

Use available sunlight as an automation event trigger in your greenhouse using the Solar Radiation Beacon.

Monitor VPD, CO2, NH3 temperature, humidity, air pressure and dust inside and outside of your greenhouse.

Environmental Sensing & Farm Automation

Get access to your farm’s critical data at the click of a button using Beacons, sensors and EnviroDash.

Use sensor readings from Beacons as triggers for irrigation, communication, and automation events.

Use Beacons to monitor VPD, radiation, temperature and much more – visit the store for more information.
