System and method for remotely controlling behavior of multiple devices
A system and method for remotely controlling behavior of multiple devices are presented. The system comprises a plurality of devices, e.g. puffers, and a remote master controller. Each device includes a radio frequency (RF) control system for programming and control of its operation. The communication between the puffer and the master controller during mass programming is through Bluetooth Low Energy peripheral mode and observer mode. Using its peripheral mode, the master controller advertises a desired program for the puffers in an orchard through a custom UUID. Each puffer picks up and parses the custom UUID and reprograms itself. Each puffer also uses its peripheral mode to advertise its configuration to be picked up by the master controller so that the master controller can verify that the puffer has correctly reprogrammed itself based on the mass programming advertisement.

An apparatus and system for using semiochemical compositions to control insect pests including the navel orangeworm. Includes a source of at least one semiochemical composition contained within a housing and a dispenser to initiate the controlled release of the composition over an area of treatment in response to one or more control signals. Compound release is achieved by adjusting start times and stop times, at intervals that coincide with periods of high activity for an insect pest or in response to trap capture data for the insect pest. A transmitter may be included report operation and status for monitoring purposes. Optional receiver allows for remote control. Release of the composition may also depend on signals from a light sensor, temperature sensor or other environmental factors such as wind, humidity and rain.
