Title:
A REMOTE SENSING DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR AGRICULTURAL AND OTHER APPLICATIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/064963
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A radio-frequency enabled remote sensing device which can be deployed as a single device or a system of networked devices for gathering environmental data. The device is fully integrated and autonomous.The device operates using solar energy and is battery free due to power saving features of its control module and communications module. The device may operate in a sleep/wake cycle to further conserve power during low light conditions.
