GreenTech Amsterdam concluded yesterday and before we bring you our extensive photo report on Monday, we’ve summarized ten takeaways from the show.
Combining sensor technology, AI and knowledge of lighting, that’s how the RED horticulture team created Smart Dimming.
Sensors and AI
Computer vision recognition and artificial intelligence are increasingly being integrated into various technologies, improving crop condition monitoring, using light, CO₂, energy, harvest predictions, and data management. Some companies even work on completely autonomous cultivation concepts. However, several AI players have already backed out, as it remains difficult to make AI applicable in horticulture and big investments do not guarantee big successes. Data collection is not the problem; standardizing and collecting useful data is one of the key challenges. Growers are not computers, or are computers not growers?
