Aranet New Tech at Cultivate'26

As commercial horticulture operations scale, data fragmentation and manual spot-checking remain significant hurdles to maximizing crop yields. To address these challenges, Aranet will showcase its complete industrial wireless monitoring ecosystem for attendees at Cultivate'26 (Booth 3110) from July 11 to July 14, 2026.

Aligned with the event's core theme of advancing businesses and accelerating ideas, the showcase features two major commercial hardware advancements designed to optimize resource efficiency and eliminate data silos from the greenhouse root zone to the canopy.

Advanced Light and Substrate Tracking Integrations

The headline additions to the Aranet Pro ecosystem focus on precision data collection without the infrastructure costs of traditional hardwiring:

• The Aranet Apogee Transmitter: Resulting from a strategic collaboration with Apogee Instruments, this specialized transmitter allows growers to integrate quantum light sensors and infrared radiometers directly into the Aranet Pro setup. Commercial facilities can now track specialized PAR, ePAR, FAR, and non-contact canopy temperature metrics alongside core microclimate data within a unified Aranet Cloud dashboard.
• Industrial Wireless Weight Sensors: Engineered specifically for substrate slabs and cultivation pots, these high-capacity scales provide real-time biomass and dry-down tracking. This continuous data stream allows head growers to refine irrigation frequencies and scale crop steering protocols with high precision.

Unified Telemetry Built for Commercial Horticulture

Beyond the new hardware integrations, technical specialists will demonstrate Aranet’s core environmental monitoring lineup. The platform streamlines microclimate and substrate management by allowing operators to monitor ambient temperature and humidity for real-time Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) tracking, alongside root-zone Volumetric Water Content (VWC) and Electrical Conductivity (EC) measurements.

The underlying technology leverages over 25 years of microwave radio expertise from Aranet’s parent company, SAF Tehnika. Engineered to maintain exceptional signal reliability through dense crop canopies and high-humidity environments, the plug-and-play architecture allows commercial facilities to deploy, expand, and manage their sensor networks independently without complex data cabling.

Visit the Live Demonstration at Booth 3110

Horticulture professionals, facility operators, and agtech integrators attending Cultivate'26 can view the live ecosystem and the new Apogee integration in action at Booth 3110. Technical specialists will be available throughout the exhibition to discuss specific facility challenges, outline equipment capabilities, and demonstrate custom deployment configurations.
