The PhytocubeThe PHYTOCUBE is a fully-integrated solution for indoor agriculture. Its two-tiered technology combines 1) an adjustable physical module, and 2) an open-source internet plateforme. These technologies are being developed by PHYTOSPHERE in the wake of the the development of vertical farming and of the internet of things.
The Phytocube's tailored dashboard allows real-time remote-control of lighting, irrigation, carbon-dioxide, temperature, humidity and aeration. These environmental parameters can also be recorded according to the user's need, for development, research, tracking or any other purpose. The easily adjustable and modular structure of the Phytocube combines all the elements necessary for indoor agriculture. Designed for maximum versatility, it can replicate the conditions necessary for almost any type of plant. It integrates an irrigation network, lighting, monitoring tools, an aeration system and anaerobic composting system into a sealable and height-adjustable unit. The high-intensity DEL lighting of the Phytocube is optimized by a state of the art heat-exchange system. This newly developed technology will simultaneously provide the necessary cooling of the lights while taking advantage of the heat transfer to provide sustainable heating. This heating system can be integrated into new buildings or provide an advantageous retrofit to other outdated systems. |
