Monitor Your Smart Irrigation System Remotely with Iran-Made App
“The product designed and presented by the company is used in industrial and household smart irrigation systems,” Mohammad Reza Jenabzadeh, the chairman of the board of directors of the knowledge-based ‘Fanavaran Sanat Robotics’ company and a faculty member of the Islamic Azad University’s Yazd branch, told ANA.
“This irrigation system is installed by an application on the mobile phone and allows the user to monitor the irrigation process in any place with remote control capability,” he added.
“Based on the available figures, averagely, the use of smart irrigation systems saves 25% to 50% in water consumption. Such a system makes it possible to monitor the irrigation status of the project, the status of the sensors and the status of water tanks at any moment,” Jenabzadeh said.
“With this smart system, we are able to remotely monitor the necessary data and information about the smart home and industrial irrigation system, and we can use other capabilities of these smart devices by installing temperature and humidity sensors,” he stressed.
Earlier this year, an Iranian startup stationed at the incubator center of Islamic Azad University’s Science and Research branch had also produced a smart irrigation system which saves 50% in water consumption in farms.
The smart system measures the soil moisture with a moisture meter sensor which makes possible the automatic irrigation of the desired trees and plants (by considering the desired moisture range of any tree or plant, the desired amount of water and the desired time) manually (through sending SMS or missed call) or by using the technology of Internet of Things.
“Smart irrigation with Internet of Things enjoys the capability to activate or deactivate the system with a cell phone anywhere in the world, it can automatically collect data from satellite and order watering or canceling it by using the artificial intelligence,” Rezayee, the manager of the startup, told ANA.
He described real-time monitoring of soil moisture and informing the user as another advantage of this system.
“Compared to similar systems, this product saves 50% of water and does not require the presence of manpower to irrigate gardens and fields, and its price is lower than its counterparts,” Rezayee said.
