Abstract
The hot and humid weather of Taiwan causes a wide spread of pests and a great loss to Taiwan's agriculture. In particular, Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) causes huge agricultural disasters in past years. To gather important information related to the outbreak of S. litura, we develop an ecological monitoring system which combines GSM transmission technologies with mechatronics. The proposed system also equips with an MSP430 low-power microcontroller, a solar power supply system, and a trapping tube. All information collected by the system is stored in a specially designed database. The system is then deployed at an outdoor environment to verify its reliability. The test results show that the system is capable of providing effective monitoring information for pest management.
