About us
We couldn’t be happier seeing our founding dream – using our innovations to help address the world’s critical water & food management issues – become a reality. See Infographic here.
We'd like to welcome our new Makers who are adding this unique product to their offerings. Together as a community we can provide real-time farm data where it has never been cost-effective before!
Thank you to all our partners, early adopters and farmers, and research scientists and institutions for taking the technology up and giving us great feedback. We're committed to constant improvement and could not do this without you.
SensMitTM’s Role
SensMitTM is the CanadArm of Precision Agriculture – it is a field-proven (3000 units in 2016 and growing 67%/yr.) Internet of Things technology that cost-effectively does the heavy lifting needed to move data from widespread (farm-wide) sensors to a single location. SensMitWeb then makes the data easy to access, visualize and integrate into enterprise applications so that the benefits of efficient irrigation practices can now be realized.

History of our Tech Firm:
Established in 2008, iDUS Controls Ltd. is a leading-edge intellectual property-based technology company. We design smart algorithm-driven controls for a variety of applications associated with agriculture, water and resource efficiency.
Starting with our controls for smart water reuse pump-stations for homes, we have since expanded into water sensing, agriculture irrigation control and next-generation smart-mesh communications technologies.
Our Philosophy:
At iDUS we started by recognizing that adaptation-type technologies are needed to support a growing population facing a changing climate. But we also know that end-users need to see an immediate pay-back for changing their current processes; they need ‘real benefits now’. As a result, our technologies are all designed to create immediate value to the end user on the day they start using them through a definable return on investment, increased productivity and simplified operations.
Our Areas of Specialization:
iDUS supports our licensing partners; supplying technology to help them build smart systems for:
- Precision agricultural;
- Agriculture management and irrigation;
- Utility monitoring;
- Solar-powered controls; and,
- Business and home water reuse/conservation.
We fine-tune our patented and patent-pending technologies to meet client needs, and then provide support during implementation into their market areas.
How we operate:
We also selectively manufacture our products and distribute to government and business clients for their use and resale.
