IoT Application on Aquaponics System Energy Optimization

Abstract

The increasing need for foodstuffs with the availability of less productive agricultural land, causing the shortage of food to meet people’s food clothing. Modern cultivation techniques such as aquaponics system, methods and combined advances in the field of communications technology, in this case the use of the internet of things with web interface technology can be the best solution to reduce food needs are increasing every year. This research designs internet of things application on aquaponics cultivation system with web interface technology consisting of Rasppbery Pi, ATmega328, Turbidity Sensor, LDR Sensor, DHT22 and Relay as output control. Produced a modern crop and fish cultivation system, capable of providing real-time information to users. So that users can monitor water turbidity, plant lighting intensity, temperature and humidity of cultivation space and control fish feeding, plant lighting and water circulation pump aquaponics aquaculture system through web interface technology although from long distance. The design result of this tool proves that the use of internet application of thing is very useful especially in the field of cultivation because it can reduce the time needed to care fish and plants.
