PAGE Technologies is developing high-tech chemical sensors for agricultural crop management that can be deployed directly into the environment at a >10x lower cost than competing products. They have developed a suite of sensors at the lab scale that can detect key parameters in aqueous media, including pH, electrical conductivity, moisture, temperature and nutrient content (e.g., nitrogen, potassium). These sensors are adaptable to many different use cases (such as handheld probes or deployable in-situ IoT sensors), and their low cost allows them to be easily replaced, eliminating the need for regular maintenance and recalibration. PAGE Technologies saves growers time and money and relieves the stress surrounding fertilizer management.

WHISPER Energy lowers building energy consumption by 30%+ with battery-free wireless sensors. Their sensors wirelessly communicate human occupancy and environmental attributes like air quality in commercial buildings. Using machine learning (ML), WHISPER Energy, unlike other sensor solutions, allows situation-specific controls targeted at personalized "smart" buildings and electric grid modernization opportunities. Savings are obtained by communicating occupancy and environmental levels with the building's heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) or building automation system (BAS) to apply energy only when and where needed.
