UgMO Debuts on CNBC
After hitting the links earlier this year, yesterday UgMO hit it big with a feature spot on CNBC’s “Tech Effect” segment.
Advanced Sensor Technology founder and CEO Walt Norley fielded questions from Silicon Valley bureau chiefJim Goldman at the Home Depot Center outside Los Angeles, where UgMO is being installed this week. Norley spoke about how this advanced, wireless, underground soil monitoring technology is positively impacting the environmental and economic factors of properties like this with precise data on water management.
Called a property manager’s “best friend” by CNBC’s Goldman, UgMO is changing the way superintendents and turf managers approach their work, especially in those areas of the country hardest hit by the drought. UgMO brings data 24/7 on soil moisture, temperature and salinity directly to turf managers’ fingertips via wireless sensors and a highly intuitive software program. It removes completely the guesswork of when, where and how much to water, when and how much to fertilize, where to target disease prevention, etc. Turf performance is optimized and resource savings, especially water savings, are dramatic – upward of 25%.
