# What technology can improve plant yield and quality in indoor farming?

Advancements in technology have introduced several innovations for remote plant condition monitoring:

* **IoT-enabled sensors:** Internet of Things (IoT) sensors transmit real-time data on environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and soil moisture to cloud platforms, allowing remote access from anywhere.
* **Automated imaging systems:** Systems equipped with cameras and AI analyse plant growth, detect diseases, and monitor overall health remotely.
* **Mobile applications:** Apps provide growers with real-time alerts and data visualisation, enabling prompt responses to any anomalies or environmental shifts.
* **Automated control systems:** Integrated systems that adjust lighting, irrigation, and climate controls based on sensor data, optimising plant conditions without manual intervention.

These innovations empower growers to maintain optimal plant health and productivity, even from a distance.

### The Grow Sensor is an IoT-enabled device that allows remote monitoring of key environmental conditions.

It measures temperature, humidity, CO₂, light intensity (PPF/PPFD and ePAR), and leaf surface temperature, with all data accessible via the cloud. 

Growers can view real-time conditions, receive alerts, and track trends remotely—enhancing control over their grow space without needing to be physically present.
