AGRICULTURAL LIGHT SENSOR MARKET

INTRODUCTION

pH and soil nutrient levels are two essential pieces of information provided by electrochemical sensors for precision farming. Specific ions in the soil are found using sensor electrodes to gather data. At the moment, sensors mounted on specifically constructed "sleds" assist in gathering, processing, and mapping soil chemical data.

This sensor employs a method that penetrates the ground. The force determined by load cells or pressure scales is then recorded by this sensor. The holding forces created by the soil's cutting, smashing, and displacement are recorded when a sensor travels through the soil.

They are simple to install and utilise. They cost less. They can be utilised for pollution and global warming in addition to agriculture. They have a wireless chip so that someone can control them from a distance.

AGRICULTURAL LIGHT SENSOR MARKET RECENT DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION

PHENOM is made for crops that need a Daily Light Integral (a measurement of photosynthetic light) for optimum growth ranging from 15 to 30 DLI, like lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, and strawberries, to much higher DLI crops like cannabis, which needs over 40 DLI. From seed to vegetative development, PHENOM can also be used with Agnetix A3 or ZENITH luminaires.

Prime-quality light emitters, optical parts, and light sensors are among the items offered by ams OSRAM, a pioneer in optical solutions. 

Energous and OSRAM are making it possible to create a wirelessly powered multi-spectral light sensor that farmers can use to optimise lighting for best outcomes thanks to their partnership. The capacity to calculate photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) will also be included.

The need for field sensors to be powered wirelessly and without batteries is growing as vertical farming and controlled-environment agriculture technologies improve quickly.

For agricultural LED products to meet performance requirements, careful design is necessary. In order to track and balance LED changes, automatically alter light output, and provide the best light recipes for indoor farms, it describes a closed-loop control architecture employing spectral sensors.

High-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps have historically been used in these agricultural or horticultural settings as an artificial light source, but as time has passed, LED manufacturers have developed new generations with better and richer spectral characteristics that are more efficient and more affordable than earlier LEDs. 

These new LEDs outperform conventional HPS lights because they use less energy, produce less heat, and have a longer lifespan. Furthermore, the horticultural industry is more open because of these increased qualities.

For instance, farmers can  adjust the luminaires' intensity and spectral emissivity as well as move them closer to the plants to promote the best possible growth of the plants.

This has two advantages: it enables growers to improve plant density in greenhouses through tightly vertical stacking of plants (also known as vertical farming), and it allows growers to optimise the growth cycle and, consequently, the occupancy duration of greenhouses.

These advantages are aiding LEDs in replacing other lighting options as the preferred source of illumination for horticultural lighting equipment.

AGRICULTURAL LIGHT SENSOR MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST

 The global Agricultural Light Sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.

NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH IN THE AGRICULTURAL LIGHT SENSOR MARKET

The launching of the smartPAR Light Sensor Module, an integrated light sensor technology, was announced by LumiGrow, a smart horticulture lighting startup.  Now, greenhouse gardeners can guarantee that their crops receive nearly ideal lighting conditions throughout the year, regardless of changes in the season, the environment, or the infrastructure of the greenhouse.

To start automating your lighting plan, all the sensor technology needs to do is plug into your LumiGrow Pro Series or Pro Series E fixtures. From there, it connects to your smartPAR Wireless Control System.

Once attached, the smartPAR Light Sensor Module analyses greenhouse ambient light levels and modifies your LumiGrow lighting to consistently meet your crop's desired daily light integral (DLI) goals.

According to the Vice President of Research, "This is the first time in the history of agriculture that optimal lighting conditions have been feasible with LEDs in the greenhouse year-round." By turning on and off HPS fixtures, earlier sensor technologies made early attempts to automate lighting.

However, this kind of strict management didn't really address complicated interactions between plants and light in a way that may increase growers' earnings. What LumiGrow has accomplished is to guarantee crop quality while satisfying your greenhouse lighting needs, greatly increasing consistency in production. 

One simple method for producers to employ intelligent horticulture lighting to increase crop quality and yields is the smartPAR Light Sensor Module. More sophisticated spectral techniques can be used with LumiGrow LED fixtures to elicit additional favourable plant features by adjusting the spectrum, intensity, and photoperiod.
