BIOTA Partners with X-Logic to Build Advanced IT & IoT Systems for the URBAN FOOD Smart Farmer

by | Mar 21, 2025 | Blog, URBAN FOOD | 0 comments

We are proud to announce a new strategic partnership with X-Logic, a Croatian technology company specializing in custom electronics, embedded systems, and industrial IoT solutions. Together, we are developing the complete IT and IoT infrastructure that powers the next generation of our URBAN FOOD Smart Farmer systems.

This collaboration marks a major step forward in transforming aquaponics into a fully digital, automated, and data-driven indoor farming experience.

What X-Logic Brings to the Project

X-Logic is responsible for designing and building the entire technological backbone of the Smart Farmer platform, including:

✔ Custom Hardware Development

  • Smart sensor modules for water quality, temperature, oxygen, light, flow, and nutrient balance

  • Control electronics for pumps, feeders, lighting and environmental systems

  • Reliable communication interfaces for indoor and container-sized units

✔ Software & Firmware Development

  • Embedded software for real-time data processing

  • Cloud communication protocols for continuous monitoring

  • System logic for automation and safety

  • Integration with our mobile and web applications

Their engineering expertise ensures that each aquaponic system becomes an intelligent, self-regulating ecosystem—a living machine capable of monitoring itself 24/7.

X-logic

With X-Logic’s technology, our URBAN FOOD Smart Farmer will allow anyone to become a modern farmer in just 25 minutes per day. Together we are creating:

  • A plug-and-play smart farming device

  • Automated control of ecological processes

  • Early-warning alerts and predictive maintenance

  • A seamless user experience for beginners and experts

This is the foundation for future upgrades such as AI-driven recommendations and fully autonomous grow cycles.

A Partnership for the Future

By joining forces, BIOTA and X-Logic are accelerating the creation of an innovative, scalable indoor farming platform designed for homes, schools, gastronomy, offices, and urban communities.

Our shared goal is simple:
Make sustainable food production smarter, easier, and accessible to everyone.

Stay tuned for more updates as we integrate the first complete IoT prototype into our aquaponic systems.

Tagging Hope: A Decade of Protecting Croatia’s Last Telestes souffia in the Bregana River

In 2025, our team completed the latest chapter of a decade-long effort to protect Telestes souffia, tagging 30 adult individuals in the Bregana River using BIOMARK PIT technology. Each fish was gently anesthetised, measured, weighed, and fitted with an 8 mm microchip to enable long-term tracking of survival and movement in its last Croatian habitat. The work builds on earlier studies, including the 2017 research that documented a small and declining population, underscoring the urgency of continued monitoring. With new data now collected, updated 2025 population estimates are on the way — and hope for the species continues to flow with the Bregana.
