AGNETIX LIGHTING TECHNOLOGY TO JOIN CORNELL UNIVERSITY'S GLASE CONSORTIUM

Agnetix selected to join the Greenhouse Lighting and Systems Engineering (GLASE) Consortium

Agnetix has been selected to join the Greenhouse Lighting and Systems Engineering (GLASE) Consortium. Established in 2017 by Cornell University and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, the GLASE Consortium engages in research, education and the transfer of technology to industrial members and ultimately to the public so that consumers may enjoy the wide-ranging benefits.


Agnetix will join the ranks of the leading global innovators in the industrial controlled environment agriculture (CEA) industry.

"High efficiency data driven cultivation for the long game of humanity."

"It is an honor for us to be selected to join this prestigious group alongside Cornell University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Rutgers University, and like-minded industry partners. All committed to pioneering and commercializing breakthrough greenhouse technology. High efficiency data driven cultivation for the long game of humanity," said Jordan Miles, CEO, Agnetix.

The Consortium is headed by Erico Mattos, Ph.D., Executive Director, GLASE. The mission is to develop advanced greenhouse lighting and control systems that are tailored to the needs of specific greenhouse and indoors cultivated crops. Their work extends to all areas of the CEA lighting environment, integrating advances in LED light engineering, carbon dioxide enrichment, and lighting control systems. The ultimate goal is to ensure the food that is grown indoors is done so in the most efficient way possible with the lowest carbon footprint.

"GLASE works with industry members, including controlled environment growers and manufacturers, to research, develop, and implement energy-efficient technology in greenhouses and indoor farms. We bring industry, research, and academia together to work toward more sustainable and profitable grow light systems," said Haley Rylander, Extension Support Specialist with GLASE.

Sanaz Jarolmasjed, PhD, Director of Biological and Vision Systems for Agnetix, added, "This is an exciting partnership on greenhouse lighting and control systems. What GLASE is working towards is well aligned with our objectives. We endeavor to bring integrated controls, environment sensing and plant monitoring all together to provide better decisions, better grows, and higher quality products."

Even Light, Better Growth: XLamp® Horizon LEDs

Even Light, Better Growth: XLamp® Horizon LEDs

Description: The XLamp® XP-E2 and XP-G3 Horizon LEDs feature horticulture-specific beam shapes designed to deliver more even light coverage across plant beds, especially at short luminaire mounting heights. Unlike standard LEDs that project light directly forward - often causing uneven illumination - Horizon70 and Horizon90 optics direct peak output 70° or 90° from center, ensuring uniform light distribution. Available in 70 CRI White, Photophyll™ Select, Royal Blue, Photo Red and Far Red, these LEDs are ideal for optimized plant growth and lighting efficiency.
