that other landowners’ sites will lie in between the centre and the extremities of the estate. The accuracy of information received will depend on physically getting out to check sensors – not always possible every day. What’s more, many displays are required to visualise the multiple, disparate data streams on a large farm.

Technology pioneer enLight draws on more than 30 years’ experience at the forefront of software development, communication and microelectronics. We have rolled out scalable smart city systems that monitor environmental conditions across urban and rural areas, campuses and offices, providing real-time data facilitating energy efficiency, traffic management, pollution monitoring and myriad other benefits. EnLight has created agri-specific sensors that feed into our API, which also links seamlessly to other sensors from third-party manufacturers, bringing together disparate systems and allowing for the straightforward visualisation of data.

Working together, the shared expertise of enLight and our engineering partner makes for a unique and extremely powerful alliance, creating agritech systems that will change the way farming professionals collect and use data. Our collaboration delivers a technological solution that will revolutionise farming.

Work with us and transform your farm.

we always ask what our clients really need and work out how to create it, adapt, or enhance the functionality of an existing product to provide the ideal solution.

This approach, coupled with our decades of experience creating microelectronics, designing products and developing software, means our technology will evolve as required. As pioneers of the Internet of Things, we’re also passionate about making our technology straightforward to visualise, which will in turn allow stakeholders to make business-critical decisions.

EnLight’s approach to agritech follows a similar philosophy – we have already created a multitude of environmental sensors, but rather than just using these, we realised

So how best can you use our intelligent solutions to create an integrated monitoring and control system? Every case is unique, and our approach ensures your needs are matched to our technological expertise in order to formulate a smart solution for your agricultural enterprise.

We call it the 5E process:

Explore, Engage, Elaborate, Enhance, Excite

Hmmm!

HOW ARE WE GOING TO DO THAT? Increase productivity, monitor and control data from one dashboard.

1 Explore This is all about finding out your needs – what do you want to achieve? We’ll explore your current situation, your ideal future scenario, your inspiration and your budget. We’ll talk through all your thoughts and considerations, asking questions all the time. We hope you’ll ask us questions, too – a collaborative discussion is more likely to create a sustainable solution.

2 Engage We want what we do to meet your precise needs – we’ll send our people to work alongside your teams for a while, if that’s what it takes. Who’s going to be using the new networks?

Let’s find out. We’ll take all the information you give us and create a solution that works for your organisation, your budget and your agricultural ethos.

ADD SENSORS

COMMUNICATE

MONITOR & CONTROL POWER

5 Excite

3 Elaborate Now it’s time for us to apply our expertise to your ideas and turn your vision into a workable reality. What’s going to provide optimum functionality in your existing environment, and what’s going to work in the future?

4

Enhance We’ll assess how your existing networks can be enhanced in order to create a smart network. What can we add to your environment to provide the intelligent, eco-conscious solutions you need for future success?

WE CHAT SOME MORE AND ADD EXTRA BITS

Yes, excite. Because we hope you’ll get as excited as we do when we create a network that provides the right solution to meet our clients’ needs.

So let’s talk. We wouldn’t be the awardwinners we are without listening to our customers and using our technology to create what you need.

WE PROVIDE A SOLUTION WHICH IS 100% FIT FOR PURPOSE AND EXCEEDS YOUR EXPECTATIONS!
