“ We create Fliwer to build an integral and sustainable solution for plant care. Effective, functional, easy to use and unique” (CEO, Fliwer)
Fliwer consists of a range of devices that promise the user “smart plant care”. The Fliwer Sensor measures light intensity, temperature, soil moisture, humidity as well as fertiliser levels (soil electroconductivity). It also contains an internal solenoid valve that can be used to irrigate gardens at optimal times detected by the device. These sensors can be distributed around the garden to monitor multiple plants in areas of similar light, temperature and soil type.
The Fliwer system can also be used in larger applications using the Fliwer Control unit. It can also be integrated with existing irrigation systems utilising existing solenoid valves (up to 6 zones) and Fliwer Link which connects it all together via Wifi or 3G for broader areas.
The Flower system also incorporates many other features including an ‘Artificial Intellegence’ module which sends tips to the user utilising the information collected by the sensors, weather forecasts as well as the knowledge base (Plant Library) incorporated in the system.
