We are winegrowers, our solutions are designed with farming requirements in mind. The idea for Vinduino came as we needed reliable soil moisture data for our irrigation decisions during a
multi-year drought at our vineyard in Temecula, Southern California.
By monitoring soil moisture and managing irrigation schedule and time, we achieved
25% saving on our water use.
Vinduino uses open source hardware, like Arduino and Raspberry Pi, to make our solutions affordable and scalable. We developed a low-cost soil moisture sensor,
and long-range wireless technology to view the sensor
information on-line.
Because of this, more sensors can be used to provide a more detailed soil moisture profile.
