Grass-Twin<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Digital twin of an artificial grass field with printed electronics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Project objective<\/strong>The Grass-Twin<\/em> project focused on developing a digital twin<\/strong> of grass sports fields (natural, hybrid or artificial) using a system of sensors based on printed electronics<\/strong> distributed across the entire surface, in order to monitor key parameters in real time such as soil moisture<\/strong> and adapt irrigation and care according to the specific needs of each area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution to the challenge<\/strong>Traditionally, irrigation and maintenance systems for sports fields rely on uniform schedules, without considering local microclimatic conditions. This leads to inefficient use of resources like water and negatively impacts turf quality. Grass-Twin<\/em> addressed this challenge by implementing a network of low-power printed sensors<\/strong>, creating a digital representation of the field that allows for precise, sustainable, and real-time<\/strong> adjustments to irrigation and maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Scope<\/strong>The developed system integrates printed electronics<\/strong> techniques to manufacture flexible sensors that capture localized data on field conditions, connecting them to a control platform that optimizes irrigation and turf care decisions in specific areas of the field. This technology represents an advance in the intelligent management of sports surfaces and opens up possibilities for application in other sectors that require distributed monitoring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expected result<\/strong>The Grass-Twin<\/em> solution is expected to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Optimize the consumption of water<\/strong> and other resources.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Improve the quality and uniformity of the turf<\/strong> for optimal playing conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduce the risk of sports injuries <\/strong>associated with poor maintenance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Promote the use of printed electronics <\/strong>as a key technology in sustainable surface monitoring and control solutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n
