What is the Fliwer Project?
Fliwer is an innovative system designed to revolutionize how plants are cared for. If human intelligence is leading us to a collapse, maybe it’s time to trust an artificial one… Fliwer steps in as a smart, autonomous solution that manages plant care efficiently and sustainably. Gone are the days of intuitive watering clocks and guesswork—this technology uses advanced sensors and actuators to monitor vital plant parameters and environmental conditions, ensuring plants get exactly what they need, when they need it. It’s a new era where technology and nature work hand in hand.
Main Benefits of Fliwer
Fliwer offers a range of benefits that make plant care smarter and more responsible:

- Weatherproof design for all conditions
- No installation hassles or programming needed
How Fliwer Uses Cutting-Edge Technology
At the heart of Fliwer is a unique blend of sensors and actuators that keep a close eye on plants and their surroundings. Light, temperature, humidity, soil moisture, fertilizer levels, and salinity are just some of the factors monitored. The system can interact with existing irrigation setups, replacing old controllers seamlessly thanks to compatibility with standard electrovalves and relays. This means users don’t have to overhaul their entire system to benefit from Fliwer’s intelligence.
Connectivity Through IoT
Fliwer devices communicate via an intelligent mesh network using various wireless technologies like BLE, Wifi, GPRS, 4G, NbIoT, LTE, LoRa, ZigBee, and 6LowPan. This network ensures efficient communication over both short and long distances, conserving energy and extending battery life. The Internet of Things (IoT) backbone allows all parts of the system to work together smoothly, creating a smart ecosystem for plant care.
Artificial Intelligence at Work
Fliwer Cloud collects data from devices, weather forecasts, and even pest databases to make the smartest decisions for plant health. It filters out noise and only alerts users with the most relevant information—no overwhelming notifications here. This AI-driven approach means plants get the care they need without users having to become experts or constantly monitor their greenery. It’s like having a plant whisperer in your pocket.
