Shelf

The vertical shelf is the structural and intelligent support of the cultivation system. It acts as the physical and digital axis for the connection of the modular cubes.

1. 📏 Vertical Rails

• 📦 Modular design:

  • The shelf will have vertical rails that allow cubes to be easily inserted or removed.
  • Each rail is designed to support multiple cubes without compromising stability or accessibility.

• 🔁 Individual configuration per cube:

  • Through the app, each cube can be configured independently according to the mushroom species being cultivated.
  • This allows for maintaining different microclimates on the same shelf.

2. 🧠 Central Processing Platform

• 🧩 Main system control:

  • Receives and processes data on temperature, humidity, CO₂, crop status, etc., from all connected cubes.
  • Executes the AI logic that automatically adjusts the internal conditions of each module.

• ⚡ Power distribution:

  • Manages the electrical power of all cubes through connections integrated into the rails.
  • Includes a backup system (UPS) to maintain operation during power outages.

• 📡 Communication with the local network/internet:

  • Connects to the network to allow remote monitoring, notifications, and system updates.

🧬 The shelf not only physically organizes the cubes, but also functions as the brain and backbone of the cultivation laboratory.
