Camnexus-IoT and Cambridge University bring low-power IoT network to empower agrifood producers
Brazil, July 2019. Camnexus-IoT in collaboration with its parnerts, the University of Cambridge, UNISUL and UFSC, installed the first Camnexus-IoT LoRaWAN Network in Brazil. The installation is part of the BRIDGE–TESC project, a pilot project aiming to improve the agricultural productivity of Santa Catarina using enabling technologies.

Taking advantage of a solar hydroponic greenhouse developed under the BRIDGE project, the new pilot will develop and install an adapted version of the solar greenhouse in a scholar community of Santa Catarina, in partnership with the Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy and Natural Resources Governance (C-EENRG).
BRIDGE-TESC is an international collaboration project for sustainable development involving the University of Cambridge in the UK, University of the South of Santa Catarina (UNISUL) and Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) in Brazil; and Camnexus in the UK. The project is co-funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) of the University of Cambridge. Currently, two Camnexus-IoT gateways and sensor networks have been installed in Brazil at UFSC, Florianopolis, and the second at UNISUL, Tubarao. |
Second Camnexus-IoT LoRa gateway installed in Brazil: supporting real-time monitoring for air quality in cities
Brazil, July 2019. As part of the collaboration between University of Cambridge and Camnexus, a second network was installed and is in operation in the city of Florianopolis, capital of Santa Catarina state. In partnership with Universidad Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC), the gateway will provide LoRa network to the campus and city in a radius of up to 5km.
Soon after the installation, a preliminary test done at the food court at the UFSC Event Centre demonstrated good connectivity even though it was in a concrete enclosure with many people around and situated more than 1 kilometre from the FEESC building. In addition to the Camnexus and University of Cambridge team, the installation had valuable help from the Technician of the Department of Automation and Systems (DAS) Gabriel Manoel, in addition to Beto from FEESC. |

Camnexus-IoT network in Brazil: improving farming productivity and efficient management of water and energy resources
Tubarao, June 2019. Partnering Cambridge University C-EENRG, under the umbrella of the Global Challenges Research Fund, Camnexus is supporting decision making process of key productive sectors in Brazil by providing reliable and low power infrastructure for real-time monitoring. The installation was done during June 2019 in Santa Catarina, Brazil. A team of Camnexus went to Brazil to perform the installation, setup and training of the network to the new users.
Currently the hydroponic farm greenhouse at Tubarao is being monitored remotely, using a two-sensors node network. During the five weeks of operation, the pilot in Tubarao is providing real-time data of the greenhouse's internal climate, in-feed water quality and nutrients, and irrigation water level. Data processing and alerts have helped improvement of practices in the daily operation with impact in savings and productivity of the hydroponic farm. |
