Arduino® Edge Control
Capable of connecting to sensors and driving actuators such as latching valves, the Arduino Edge Control provides real-time monitoring across processes, which helps in minimizing production risks. Specifically suited to smart agriculture, it collects data on weather, soil quality, crop growth, and other metrics. Once synced to the Arduino Cloud, this data can be analyzed for insights that support operational decisions in areas like crop yield, equipment efficiency, and resource management.
The Edge Control improves crop quality and reduces manual effort by automating essential tasks such as irrigation, fertilization, and pest control.
Examples of applications include automated greenhouses, where it can regulate humidity and temperature for optimal crop growth, hydroponics and aquaponics systems that require precise condition control, and mushroom cultivation, where temperature and humidity are monitored to create ideal growth conditions.
