PhenoVation is about to introduce a fresh detector applied science : the Cf2Go sensor , an advanced gimmick that mensurate the photosynthesis efficiency of crops in real meter . rise by PhenoVation , the sensor collects data seamlessly integrate and envision within the MyLedgnd platform . This technology offers growers new opportunities to optimize their culture processes and manage greenhouse condition more precisely than ever before . The Cf2Go detector will be presented to the world for the first prison term during HortiContact in Gorinchem as part of a soft launching . The official market release is scheduled for June 2025 .
A newfangled standard in preciseness cultivationThe Cf2Go sensor provides growers with an innovative solution for measuring photosynthesis efficiency without physical physical contact with the crop . The sensor can take precise measurements from up to 100 centimeter aside , offer not only flexibility but also a more comprehensive apprehension of glasshouse conditions . This enables growers to respond more apace to changes and extenuate risks such as light tenseness or overexposure .
" With the Cf2Go , we are taking precision cultivation to the next level . By measuring essential parameters like photosynthesis efficiency and Daylight Integral ( DLI ) in real prison term , agriculturist can make informed decisions on blending or lighting . This not only save energy but also improves crop performance and yield , " say Vincent Jalink of PhenoVation .
What sets the Cf2Go apart from other photosynthesis sensors is its ability to measure not only how efficiently plant convert light into available energy ( Fv / Fm , maximum photosynthesis efficiency ) but also NPQ(t ) , which offer valuable insights into how efficiently a plant can dissipate extra energy as heat without damaging its cell . Additionally , the sensor offer TFm measuring , which allow works stress to be detected up to an minute earlier than with Fv / Fm .
The sensing element is suitable for stationary function but can also be climb on moving systems , such as spray bonanza . Moreover , the Cf2Go will be 30 % more affordable than its predecessor , the CropObserver , make modern photosynthesis measurement accessible to a all-inclusive range of growers . The sensor can also be well controlled via a stock TCP / IP protocol by any PLC or computing machine already in use by the grower .
No AI or predictions , just reliable preciseness dataThe sensor is suitable for both lighted and non - lighted crop and can be applied to a full range of plants , including love apple , bell capsicum , and potted plants . What further distinguishes the Cf2Go is its use of advance technology to do complex calculations without the motivation for artificial intelligence . This ensures reliable and accurate measure without the risks of misinterpretation .
" What truly sets the Cf2Go apart is that we do n’t use unreal intelligence information to omen industrial plant health . or else , we measure works wellness directly , ensuring eminent reliability and precision , " say Vincent Jalink .
Integration and data visualization in MyLedgndThe data point gather by the Cf2Go detector is display in the MyLedgnd online data consolidation political platform . All data take in by the sensor is processed and presented in an organized way within the MyLedgnd portal . This not only provides cultivator with insights into their polish processes but also enables data - drive decisions , such as adjust blending , lighting , or other critical cultivation argument .
" At Ledgnd , we are always looking for innovative solutions that advance the sector , " says Ramon van de Vrie of Ledgnd . " The Cf2Go sensor measures valid Fv / Fm value over a large arena , reserve growers to make precise adjustments establish on this data point . "
What make this detector unique is that it does not only centre on environmental information but also provides growers with real brainwave into how the crop itself respond to its surroundings . By at once integrate Cf2Go data into MyLedgnd , cultivator advance a complete motion-picture show — from the photosynthesis efficiency of the crop to the effect of igniter and temperature . This enable them to represent on real - time data point , such as optimize blending or lighting , precisely tailored to the plant ’s motivation .
" finally , it ’s about turn complex measure data into actionable insights that directly append note value to the raiser ’s daily practice , " says Ramon van de Vrie . By integrating the Cf2Go sensing element into MyLedgnd , young opportunity are create to monitor and meliorate crop health and refinement performance in wholly new way .
Soft launch at HortiContact 2025From February 18 to 20 , 2025 , visitors to HortiContact in Gorinchem will have the chance to see the Cf2Go detector live for the first time . PhenoVation ( fend D09 ) and Ledgnd ( stand D06 ) will be located next to each other near the entrance . alive demos at both standpoint will showcase how the sensing element works and how its data appears . Visitors can get a close - up look at the sensor and find how this engineering can make a difference in their refinement operation .
The soft launch marks the first step toward the official release of the Cf2Go sensor , planned for June 2025 . The detector will be available for purchase at that time . Until then , PhenoVation will continue to collaborate with selected exam customers to further optimize the sensor .
