The innovative Eva 3TM utilizes a unique electrical operation technology that enables growers to implement specific light recipes and growth protocols to enhance optimal crop yield biomass and quality while reducing energy consumption.
Mazor, Israel - The importance of global sustainability is being witnessed across the globe with initiatives already being taken by organizations, researchers and agronomists to overcome the challenge of limited and depleting resources.
One such advancement in the agriculture industry is the introduction of smart horticulture lighting. Essentially, horticulture lighting tunes light according to the required need and by utilizing the unique properties of LED lighting, assists in boosting yields and maintaining plant health, throughout the year.
Typically, greenhouse farmers use sunlight to grow their crops. However, the sun is unpredictable, and in Northern Hemisphere countries where greenhouses are most often used, daylight hours become shorter and shorter during the winter.
With profound knowledge in plant biology and lighting, Israel based FotonicaTM has developed and patented a revolutionary bio-illuminationTM lighting system that optimizes the growth of cannabis, green leaves, vegetables, and ornamentals while providing real-time data and analytics that ensures maximum crop control and profitability.
Eva 3TM, Fotonica’sTM LED technology provides an optimal lighting solution with highly efficient, precise, and uniform levels of photosynthetic flux density (PPFD). In addition, the innovative Eva 3TM utilizes a unique electrical operation technology that enables growers to implement specific light recipes and growth protocols that perfectly match a plant’s phenological stage and biomass development in order to enhance optimal crop yield biomass and quality while reducing energy consumption.
Their holistic approach combines superior electronics, optics and 2 years of R&D collaboration to enable complete control over all lighting parameters.
A SYNERGIE OF HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
FotonicaTM has taken great strides towards designing and developing an LED lighting system that goes above and beyond traditional greenhouse expectations.
Eva 3TM smooth surface bars are designed to avoid any interference with airflow and allow for easy cleaning. The heat produced by the LED system is discharged through an active cooling system occupied with convertible filters to avoid any clogging. The system also includes integrated sensors monitoring the functionality and alert the growers in case of required maintenance.
Fotonica’sTM patented DLEDTM system (Dynamic LED) includes 11 adjustable bands from UVA/UVB to Far Red/IR. High intensity delivering minimum 1,000 μmol from 0.6 - 1.5 m height.
REAL-TIME DATA ANALYSIS
What truly sets EVA 3TM apart is its Big Data analysis and community management capabilities, as well as image analysis for early and accurate detection of plant malfunctions such as pathogens (fungi, insects), irrigation quality and plant nutritional deficiencies.
Fotonica’sTM Command & Control software allows growers to effortlessly manage an unlimited amount of units across different geographies through wireless and BT connectivity via Tablet and/or Mobile application.
