Overview
Leveraging the 48VDC ecosystem, we want to build systems that help with Thailand’s recurring environmental challenges: the annual PM2.5 crisis in the North and nationwide flooding. Nothing in this area has been built yet. The products below are planned, not in development.
Planned Products
PM2.5 Air Quality Monitors Low-cost, long-lifetime sensors for households and communities. Chiang Mai faces severe annual PM2.5 from agricultural burning and forest fires. Affordable, reliable monitoring at the community level is needed beyond just government stations.
Flood Level Sensors Solar-powered, rugged water level monitoring for flood-prone areas. Open-source design allows communities and local governments to deploy and maintain sensors independently. Data transmitted via LoRa mesh, with no internet or cellular infrastructure required.
Emergency Solar Chargers Portable solar-to-USB/48VDC charging units for disaster situations. During floods, grid power is lost for days or weeks. A rugged, waterproof solar charger keeps communication devices operational.
LoRa Mesh Network Internet-independent, long-range wireless communication connecting all sensor and monitoring devices. Solar-powered relay nodes ensure the network survives prolonged power outages. In normal conditions, provides low-cost data transmission. In disasters, it becomes a resilient communication backbone.
