Intelligent Hydroponics Care Using IoThings

Intelligent Plant Care Hydroponic Box that exercises environment driven control methods through an Internet-of-Things (IoT) management tool called IoTtalk. IoTtalk provides a scalable and configurable software for users to easily and quickly add/remove/exchange the sensors and actuators, and program their interactions. From the experimental measurement results of IPCH-Box, the developed environment driven control methods include LED lighting, water spray and water pump which can effectively lower the CO2 concentration, the temperature and increase water level, respectively. Specifically, the time of CO2 concentration reduction in IPCH-Box is faster than that with the plant system without our mechanism. To enrich the plant growth, nutrient in water solvent intake by the hydroponics plant we need to monitor the pH value periodically. The system initial need to set the pH value depends on the hydroponics plant fertilizer value.

Sono uno studente del Master in Embedded System Technologies presso il Nandha College of Engineering di Erode. Il mio interesse nel campo dell'elettronica è rivolto all'innovazione, alla progettazione e all'implementazione di progetti embedded in scenari reali. Vorrei condividere le mie idee e le mie tecniche per progettare un sistema embedded.
