PheroSmart is an innovative, AI-based device designed for intelligent, eco-friendly pest monitoring and biological control in agriculture. It combines precision technology, environmental diagnostics, and sustainable methods to support modern farmers and researchers in maintaining healthy crops with minimal chemical input.
The primary function of PheroSmart is to detect and monitor pest populations across agricultural fields using pheromone-based attraction technology, smart sensors, and artificial intelligence. By analyzing pest movement, population density, and distribution across hectares, the system helps in early detection and decision-making for biological control actions.
PheroSmart integrates advanced sensors that track environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and soil nutrients—factors that influence pest outbreaks and crop health. These diagnostics are processed through an AI algorithm that can recommend targeted treatments or alert users when thresholds are exceeded.
A unique capability of the PheroSmart system is its multi-compartment biological agent dispenser. This feature allows the device to store and selectively release different biocontrol organisms—such as Trichogramma wasps, Chrysoperla carnea (green lacewings), and beneficial nematodes. Each organism is stored in a separate container with optimal environmental control for longevity and effectiveness. When a pest outbreak is detected in a specific zone, the AI system determines the appropriate biocontrol agent and automatically releases it in the affected area.
PheroSmart can function both in stationary mode—installed at fixed locations in the field—and in mobile mode, where it moves around obstacles and scans a wider area. The mobile version can navigate using GPS and terrain mapping to ensure complete coverage of the plantation. This mobility makes it ideal for large-scale farms, greenhouses, and high-value crops.
The device is solar-powered and energy-efficient, making it suitable for use in remote areas with limited infrastructure. Data collected by the system is transmitted wirelessly to a central dashboard accessible via smartphone or computer, allowing farmers and agricultural specialists to view real-time information, trends, and alerts.
By automating pest monitoring and biological agent deployment, PheroSmart significantly reduces manual labor and increases precision. It enables integrated pest management (IPM) practices by replacing or supplementing pesticide use with natural alternatives. This approach not only improves crop quality and yield but also preserves biodiversity, supports pollinators, and protects the health of agricultural workers and consumers.
PheroSmart is particularly valuable for research institutions, agricultural extension services, and progressive farms aiming to adopt smart agriculture and meet international eco-certification standards. It reflects a new generation of plant protection technologies—intelligent, responsive, and sustainable.
