A brief history of iNetGrow…
iNetGrow is a product of Rigel Corporation. Rigel Corporation was formed in 1988 by professors from the University of Florida who were interested in industrial automation, and who were motivated when IBM introduced its PC and started manufacturing it in Boca Raton, Florida. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Rigel Corporation developed embedded control technologies, such as those in security systems, medical and aviation control, but especially in industrial automation and control, and in automotive (engine) control. In the later 1990s, Rigel Corporation developed Internet-oriented technologies especially suited for small microcontrollers.

Meanwhile, Rigel Corporation continued to support its educational commitments by publishing books, developing evaluation boards for schools as well as chip manufacturers, and writing compilers, assemblers, interpreters, and code generators such as fuzzy-logic systems. The textbooks as well as the software (free to educational institutions and hobbyists) are still being used worldwide.

Around the turn of the millennium, Rigel Corporation was commissioned by NASA to develop greenhouse control systems to assess the feasibility of off-world deployment. iNetGrow is built on the technology developed for the "Mars Dome" project. However, it is the culmination of all of the past in-house experiences in technology development: automation and control from industrial automation, networking from security systems, extreme reliability from automotive and aerospace control, connectivity from Internetworking, and programmability from code development tools, which makes iNetGrow a unique product.

It could be said that
                  iNetGrow has been in the making for two decades…
