AKX00034

AKX00034 is an edge control board designed to address the needs of precision farming. It provides a low-power control system, suitable for irrigation with modular connectivity. It can be positioned anywhere and is suitable for precision farming, smart agriculture, and other applications requiring intelligent control in remote locations. Power can be either supplied via solar panel or DC input. It is capable of connecting sensors and drive actuators like latching valves (common in agriculture). Moreover, it has the capability to provide real-time monitoring over the entire process, thereby reducing production-related risks. Target areas are agriculture measurements, smart irrigation systems, and hydroponics.
