Droplet Takes On Residental Water Management With Robotics And More

Droplet Takes On Residental Water Management With Robotics And More | Washington DC

If residential water management is important to you, or if frugality is your thing, consider a new sprinkler that harnesses the power of the cloud. Droplet combines cloud computing and robotics in a most ingenious way. For the "green" homeowner that wants to conserve water, Droplet offers a simple-to-use and yet sophisticated solution. The manufacturer claims reduced sprinkler water consumption of as much as 90 percent. In some areas, this could translate into savings on one's water bill of more than $200 per year.

Covers up to 2,700 Sq-ft

Droplet can handle an area up to 2,700 square feet in size, according to the manufacturer. Its flow rate is four gallons per minute. Droplet only measures about 10" x 10" x 6", and it weighs just six pounds. Its range is a radius of 30-feet in any direction. The device requires a hose capable of delivering water at 40 psi.

This wi-fi operated device will work up to 50-feet from one's home, although the distance is somewhat dependent upon the exact location of your router. Droplet is powered by its own 120v power pack.
