DURABLE AND RELIABLE
ALTERNATIVE TO BATTERIES
Plant-e's sensor offer is divided into the SensorStick and the PowerStick. The SensorStick is an all-integrated solution comprising a plant-powersource, a temperature sensor, a waterlevel sensor, and a satellite transmission system.
The SensorStick directly harvests its own electricity from plant roots and soil microorganisms in peatlands. This means that, unlike traditional battery-powered solutions, the SensorStick offers a maintenance-free, innovative, and eco-friendly alternative that minimizes costs and environmental impact. Designed for quick and easy installation in peatlands, the SensorStick leverages patented technology to deliver high-definition measurements remotely, reducing the need for on-site interventions and ensuring sustainable monitoring of peatlands.
The PowerStick is Plant-e's versatile powering device. We adapt the PowerStick for various environmental sensors in remote locations. Our first IoT solutions – such as groundwater, soil moisture and phenology sensors – have been successfully applied in pilots and are ready for the next phase.
