LAS VEGAS, Apr. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Swarm Technologies LLC announced today that their SmartBee Controllers began shipping its innovative wireless controller & sensor systems to the hydroponics market.   The product line includes The Hive™ controller which integrates all the SmartBee™ wireless sensors into a mesh networked system that all work together giving the hydroponics grower a Networked Garden™ for more control of an indoor or greenhouse garden.

SmartBee Products Deliver Unique Wireless Technology For The Hydroponics Networked Garden

The product release of the SmartBee Premier Environmental System includes the Hive™ controller, the SmartBee™ LTH (light Temperature Humidity)/CO2 sensor and the Smart Stinger™ 4 power strip.   All of these and future products are operating on the Zigbee Pro mesh network that allows The Hive™ to wirelessly communicate with up to thousands of SmartBee sensors.   A custom designed Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows for remote monitoring and control from any smart phone, tablet or PC.  The SmartBee™ GUI includes customizable alerts, thresholds and notifications via text or email for timed zoned irrigation control, lighting control and environmental control.  This gives horticulturists complete remote control, whether it's a 10 light grow room or 5000 light commercial operation.  The SmartBee Controllers system can expand as an operation grows, giving flexibility to start small and easily increase environmental control as needed.  Plus it is made in the U.S.A.

The Hive™ is the center of the system and is the main portal for all wireless communications with the SmartBee™ sensors and through the internet to the gardener's mobile device or PC.  The Hive™ delivers continuous, secure data from the sensors which allows the gardener to monitor and control based on the User Interface graphics.  The Stinger™ Smart Strip 4 has four independently controlled outlets that allow a gardener to turn on or off each connected devices that are controlled by the SmartBee™ Hive Gateway via a smart device.

Another SmartBee™ product includes a wireless Water Content Sensor Module (WCSM) with up to six connected probes.  The wireless WCSM assists growers to monitor their plant's irrigation needs based on actual water content rather than just watering time.  The WCSM gives the grower the data needed to determine the amount of water the plants are using.  Once the set points are in place, the Hive Gateway gathers and analyzes the sensor data and can water as required.  This maximizes the efficiency of the irrigation plan, saving water and enhancing results.

The Company has begun installing SmartBee™ systems in several large grow facilities in Colorado, Nevada and Washington through its Commercial Consulting Division.  Commercial operations should contact the SmartBee commercial consulting group for a free evaluation and quote.

Swarm Technologies will be exhibiting the complete SmartBee™ product line at the 2015 Maximum Yield Indoor Gardening Expo in Los Angeles, CA July 25-26, 2015.

The products are sold under the SmartBee™ brand through all major grow stores in the U.S. and Canada or directly through the www.smartbeecontrollers.com web site.
