Unmatched Moisture Accuracy
GeoDrops is the first production sensor to measure the full volumetric soil moisture between two sensor probes using a cutting-edge capacitive displacement sensing technique. This translates to an industry-leading resolution of ±0.01% in moisture detection capability, regardless of soil type.
These GeoDrops Droplet sensor readings are stored as dielectric vectors, which train the AI soil physics model in GeoDrops Cloud. This model is what ensures your plants get exactly what they need, for optimal growth and water conservation.
Self-Learning AI
Traditional soil sensors require extensive calibration for different soil types, and can be easily disrupted by bugs and earthworms. GeoDrops eliminates this hassle with the power of AI and Big Data.
Self-Learning and Self-Calibrating: GeoDrops uses advanced AI to continuously learn and adapt to your specific soil conditions.
Personalized Garden Insights: By analyzing vast amounts of data, GeoDrops generates valuable insights tailored to your garden's unique needs. This empowers you to make informed decisions for optimal plant growth.
GeoDrops in Action: Real Data, Real Results
Here are actual GeoDrops data collected from Lawrence's backyard in Mountain View, CA, over a one-week period in July 2023.
The moisture histogram reveals some very valuable insights:
Fixed Schedule: Lawrence's irrigation system waters at a fixed 3-day schedule. GeoDrops can help fine-tune this schedule should the weather changes.
Uneven Evaporation: Variations in moisture level across the lawn, potentially due to sun exposure in some areas and shade in others. GeoDrops helps identify these variations so watering can be adjusted accordingly.
By providing real-time data and insights, GeoDrops empowers you to gain a deeper understanding of your watering needs. This translates to water conservation, healthier plants, and a thriving garden.
The Power of Edge Computing
GeoDrops Droplets are more than just smart sensors.
Each Droplet is a miniaturized powerhouse – an edge computer with a built-in AI-capable processor.
Here's what makes them special:
Distributed Intelligence: Unlike traditional sensors, GeoDrops Droplets can process data locally, similar to how self-driving cars operate. This allows for real-time decision-making even if the Internet is down (note: GeoDrops Station required for offline irrigation control).
Collective Learning: The Droplets work together to create a vast network of real-world data. This Big Data is fed into the GeoDrops Cloud, where it fuels the AI engine.
The more GeoDrops are used, the more data is collected, and the smarter the entire system becomes. This translates to:
Continuous Improvement: Over time, GeoDrops' AI gets better at understanding your specific soil conditions and tailoring watering strategies for optimal plant health.
Future-Proof Technology: GeoDrops is constantly learning and evolving, ensuring you always have the most advanced watering solution at your fingertips.
Did you know?
Thanks to our amazing Beta testers, GeoDrops has already amassed one of the world's largest databases of quality, real-world soil data.
Collected via GeoDrops Droplets, this 1.5M+ hours (and growing!) of soil data across 35+ US and Canadian regions fuels our AI engine, making GeoDrops smarter and more effective with every garden it waters.
