The SynField system typically comprises of:
A central SynField device installed in the farm at the point you suggest. This device hosts the heart of SynField which communicates with SYNELIXIS Cloud Server over 2G/3G mobile network connection (or over WiFi), with the relays for controlling your automation systems and with the sensors (through wires or wirelessly in the ISM band). This device is mounted on a pole and it can be powered at 6VDC through hybrid lead-battery photovoltaic system which can be provided by SYNELIXIS.
Environmental sensors: In its basic version, SynField comes with a high accuracy and wide range soil moisture and ambient temperature wired sensors. SynField basic system can be augmented by additional sensors either to create a more complete view taking into account additional parameters or to create a more detailed temperature map. SynField can integrate leaf wetness, soil electrical conductivity, wind sensor, wireless temperature sensors and wireless solar radiation sensors.
SynField powerful cloud-based software that gathers the sensed data at SYNELIXIS Cloud server, statistically processes them to present a graphical view to the farmer, executes the user-defined rules for controlling the irrigation and other systems and offers a simple yet powerful user interface. Due to its cloud-based architecture, SynField can store large volumes of sensed data and events (e.g. irrigation turn-ON and OFF events), supports multiple croplands per farmer or agriculturist and an almost infinite number of independent programs with dozens of set points.
