Irrigation Valves with No Wires and No RF

Using Irrigation to Control Irrigation

Project Overview

Our client wanted to disrupt the 100-year-old irrigation market by eliminating the most costly and least reliable part of the system—the wires. They would dominate the >1B market if this could be done. FinishLinePDS came up with a patented method of using water as the communication means.
