Foremyc
Caring for the land as a culture for the future
Foremyc is a modular, low-energy forest monitoring system for researchers and landowners. It uses a network of durable, sun-powered sensors (soil, tree, insect) that connect via LoRaWAN to provide real-time data on forest health. This allows users to act on signals before damage occurs, shifting monitoring from reactive to proactive. The design uses recyclable materials, is field-repairable, and minimizes waste.
