Smart IoT Agriculture Sensor

Agriculture poultry chicken farm

The Challenge

A compact IoT device was needed to monitor poultry farm environments while withstanding constant exposure to moisture, dust, and fluctuating outdoor conditions. The unit required IPX65 compliance, leak-proof sealing, and mechanical robustness to ensure reliable performance in real-world farm settings.

The Solution

FVG partnered with the customer to design, validate, and prepare the device for scalable production.

Manufacturing Process:

  • Mechanical Support: Assisted with housing, sealing, and structural development.

  • Sealing and Protection: Designed and validated custom rubber seals to achieve IPX65 compliance.

  • Testing and Validation: Conducted environmental and leak-proof testing across EVT and DVT stages.

  • Pilot Build: Delivered a >1,000 unit PVT build to enable wider deployment.


This process combined technical expertise with practical field requirements, ensuring the device could operate in harsh agricultural environments.
