Field sensing / AXM Agro

A field
with senses.

At the surface. Around the roots. In the air.

Look beneath the surface

Cell and Beekeeper are in development. Explore the device and follow the path of a future signal.

01Two depths

Dry on top.
And at the roots?

A glance at the bed cannot tell you what is happening inside. Cell is designed to measure soil moisture at depths of 60 and 155 mm. The difference helps you decide what to investigate.

45% / 55% · illustrative readings

Change the conditions. The colours and numbers explain the principle; they are not farm measurements or a water-flow model.

02Above the ground

Weather changes.
Keep watching.

Air, rain and dew, snow depth. A solar panel charges the batteries; the electronics are designed to adapt the measurement interval to the available energy.

Day · the solar panel is lit

The design includes an air sensor under the panel, a rain plate and a downward-facing distance sensor. Battery life still needs field testing.

03Cells / Beekeeper

One Cell.
A whole network.

Readings travel from Cells through Beekeeper to Apiary. Irrigation schedules travel back: you set the parameters in the dashboard, and the gateway distributes them to the Cells.

This diagram shows the exchange of data. The number of Cells, spacing and coverage are determined for each field.

04Cell / irrigation control

Your settings.
Control in the field.

Cell is planned to include a connector for the irrigation control system. Once it receives a schedule from Beekeeper, it controls the different valves in its block locally.

Both valves closed · illustrative example

Switch between two illustrative valves. The connection diagram is conceptual; the connector, equipment and schedule execution still require field testing.

05One view of your farm

Now see
the whole field.

Maps, satellite layers and irrigation plans are already available in Apiary. This is where individual Cell readings will connect to parcels, crops and your team.
