10+ Kms range with 2+ years on AA batteries. No longer too much to ask.
Cloud Analytics
Real-time environmental data integrated with decision support systems for automation & timely alerts. Ready to accomodate a million simultaneous connections. Future ready in terms of scalability & security.
IoT for All
With state-of-the-art wireless connectivity solutions built from the ground up for developing nations, Kritsnam is ready to usher the BoP into an era of seamless interaction of Everyone with Everything.
Vision
Kritsnam’s vision is to empower developing nations with cost-effective and data-driven water resource management techniques. The company will strive to protect the natural water resources across the globe using state-of-the art experimental hydrology and low-cost real-time water quantity/quality monitoring infrastructure. To provide, implement and sustain these holistic solutions, the company will engage in multi-disciplinary collaboration with academia, governmental agencies and industries working in the field of water resources.
Water Resource Management
As surfacewaters are being polluted and ground waterlevels are being depleted with simultaneous floods and droughts in adjoining areas, it is high time for adopting the data-driven approach to water resource management across the globe.
Precision Irrigation
Indian agriculture dominated by marginal farmers is suffering a significant productivity loss due to irregularity in water supply. Using low-cost monitoring and automation infrastructure, we aim to empower these farming communities with precision irrigation.
M2M Communication
The network established for hydrological monitoring and smart irrigation in rural landscape can serve as a backbone for various nation-wide monitoring and automation tasks that require low-cost, real-time and reliable wireless communication infrastructure.
Current Projects
Kritsnam Technologies is developing infrastructure for lost-cost low-power real-time water quantity ( water levels, flow, soil moisture and rainfall intensity ) and water quality ( pH, conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, trace metals and micro organisms ) measuring instruments that are capable of unattended monitoring for long durations.
