YieldPoint...Sensing The Future

YieldPoint Inc. has invested almost 8 years R+D into the development of a revolutionary digital geotechnical instrumentation product-line. This investment reached fruition during 2005 as a wide range of digital instruments were commercially launched; all based on the same digital technology.

2007 and 2008 represent the 2nd development phase of our business, whereby the sensors can be networked together and the data uploaded using our DESTINY networking system. Mines are beginning to enjoy the benefits of Plug 'n Play monitoring for prices around $1000. View news archive for 2008 here.

Currently attention is focused on improving our Data Management tools to include features such as "exceptions reporting" and alarms.
