Technologies in use

Our greenhouses are connected on several levels.

First of all, it is a social and community connection between users, contributors and designers of our solutions.

Also, it is a question of a radio connection between the greenhouses and servers allowing to collect information and to implement a personalized and precise follow-up.

1. The Sigfox protocol

To retrieve data from the greenhouse, we use technology related to the Internet of Things.

It's the equivalent of a data SMS that goes out every 30 minutes .

The advantages of Sigfox are numerous:

• Low energy consumption
• Global coverage (it just gets better)
• No configuration needed

As soon as your greenhouse is in operation, communication with our HUB application starts.

2. The work of algorithms

The goal behind data collection is to let algorithms monitor your greenhouse.

This monitoring consists of scrutinizing rules at regular intervals to ensure that your growing conditions are optimal.

This rule engine evolves with the experience accumulated by the Pioneers.

New rules are added as soon as it becomes possible to detect a situation.

3. An evolution along the water

As in the first day, we remain in constant evolution and the collection of information and your feedback are essential to the emergence of new solutions.

That's why exchanges with our teams are necessary to integrate changes that can be:

• Software (we modify the application, we add features)
• Hardware (we modify components, we add modules)
• Organizational (we modify the communication channels, we add content)

The idea is to be able to bring a reliable and robust experience to a maximum of people, no matter the skills and the place.
