      Innovation Garden FHNW

      The FHNW Innovation Garden is an outdoor laboratory covering an area of 35 square meters. It makes it possible to develop sensors and electronics for the assessment of soil, plants and air and to test them in a real environment.

      Our offer

      With the Innovation Garden, we offer the possibility of burying a wide variety of sensors in the ground or mounting them on poles and polling them at freely definable intervals as well as displaying the data on the Internet in real time.

      Thanks to the proximity to our Electronics Lab, we can also promptly install prototypes in our systems on the data acquisition and sensor technology side.

      For more information or to discuss a collaboration, please contact Gerd Simons.
