This ball has temperature and humidity sensors, and this is the antennae.

You can stick this ball in a pile of grain and you can pull it out when necessary.

But even more interesting is this spear.

So this is a two meter long spear.

but all you have to do is stick it into a pile of grain and this thing start transmitting data wirelessly.

So this device we sell for about a four to $500 depending on the quantity.

And then if you put three or four of these in a pile of grain or in a barge going down the river, now you know what's going on.

If there's a problem, there's a hot spot, there's a biological activity, you can take some action.

And that can save millions of dollars of grain every year.

Our cost of production is around $150.

For both of them?

Each, yeah, approximately one is like 110, one is 170.

So approximately 140.

Because inside there are several interesting things going on.

There are, of course, a battery that must last a couple of years.

There's a wireless communication circuitry, which needs to collect the data.

There are temperature sensors, humidity sensors.

They have to be weatherproof.

They have to be able to withstand large temperature variation.

and snow, and humidity.
