Frequently Asked Questions
What is an agggrrii sensor?
The aaggrrii sensor consists of the aaggrrii sensor and companion mobile app. The sensor is a replica of a real produce, equipped with internal sensors that measure the mechanical forces your produce experiences as they move through the handling and processing line.
The sensor captures data such as impact forces across three axes, velocity, and travel direction. All data is collected at a high frequency and transmitted via Bluetooth to the mobile app.
The mobile app displays real-time data and highlights impact events that may lead to bruising or quality loss. Customizable alert thresholds let you tailor the system to your specific process. Critical impact events are logged for review, and you can annotate each with notes, photos, or videos.
By using the aaggrrii sensor system to detect problem areas and optimize your processing line, you can significantly reduce damage and loss. Even a small decrease in bruising can translate into substantial cost savings and improved product quality.
What mobile devices are compatible with the aaggrrii sensor mobile app?
The aaggrrii sensor mobile app is available for both Apple iOS and Google Android platforms.
For iOS, an iPhone 11 or newer running iOS 15 or later is required. The aaggrrii sensor mobile app is not designed for use on iPad tablets.
For Android, the device must be running Android 10 or newer with a minimum screen resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels (720p). The aaggrrii sensor mobile app is not intended for use on Android tablets.
How much will I save by using the aaggrrii sensor system?
Savings will vary depending on the size and type of your operation, but even a small reduction in product damage—such as bruising or impact-related loss—can lead to significant financial benefits. Users see measurable improvements in yield, product quality, and operational efficiency, which can translate into substantial annual savings reaching into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
How much will I save by using the aaggrrii sensor system?
Every operation is unique, but based on data from the U.S. FDA, an operation with 500,000 birds can save up to $240,000 USD per year by reducing egg breakage by just 1%. Even small improvements in handling efficiency can result in substantial annual savings.
