Sustainable Agriculture and Food
Tyndall’s research in IoT based solutions for the agriculture and food industry are addressing critical challenges in the areas of sustainable production, supply chain issues, food safety, climate change and more. We work with several leading multinational companies in the agri-food and animal wellness sectors and are a key research partner in the Vistamilk SFI centre.
AgriTech and FoodTech
Growers and producers are experiencing immense pressure to adopt environmentally sustainable methods. This has led to the rapid growth in demand for robust, autonomous and sensitive IOT sensing devices for monitoring chemical, biochemical and biological analytes in highly complex sample matrices and harsh environments. Discover the research we are conducting in novel, world-leading sensor technologies.
Animal Wellbeing
Industry players are increasingly focused on animal wellbeing (not just animal health) and sustainable livestock practices, which has led to greater demand for the ability to monitor each and every animal. Tyndall boasts award-winning research in wireless sensor technologies for on, at and near-animal sensor systems, that can provide real-time, autonomous monitoring of vital signs, activity levels and behaviour of animals for precise health monitoring and early disease detection.
Edge Devices for Smart Farming
Smart farming is characterised by high automation and robotic systems, in-line sensing and environmental monitoring, fault prediction, farm management systems, and data visualisation. Tyndall researchers are focused on low-power, energy-harvesting edge devices, sensor technologies, robotic systems and advanced data analytics.
