SmartProbe
Early Pest Detection and Environmental Monitoring Technology
AIVision’s Early Pest Detection and Environmental Monitoring System provides Safety and Quality Control Managers the food supply industry a novel tool for reducing loss and damage due to infestation and environmental conditions during the storage, processing, handling and transportation of food.
SmartProbe Early Pest Detection and Environmental Monitoring System
The early detection and notification of insect infestation solves common problems in pest management, such as product and quality loss, excessive chemical use, food safety concerns, and high management costs. It replaces current, less effective, human inspection methods and brings significant economic, environmental, and social benefits.
The SmartProbe system has been used effectively in warehouses and processing facilities with rice, almonds, and walnuts.
Innovative Solution
The SmartProbe Early Pest Detection and Environmental Monitoring System provides an innovative solution for monitoring food and agricultural products for quality and safety during storage, transportation, and processing.
SmartProbe provides early detection of infestation, capturing pest insects when they first appear, remotely monitors the insect activities and environmental conditions, and sends notifications to facility managers for taking appropriate actions. Using the new patent-pending WiFi-based SmartProbe technology, insect images, temperature and relative humidity data are collected and used for prediction of insect occurrences and better product management. The insect images and environmental information can be viewed remotely through the SmartProbe app on mobile devices and computers.
Award Winning Technology
The technology received the AE50 Innovation Award for the best innovations in engineering and technology for agricultural, food, and biological systems from American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers.
