SMART GREENHOUSE MONITORING SYSTEM BASED ON INTERNET OF THINGS

Abstract

The development of technology and science which is increasingly rapid led to the birth of the industrial revolution 4.0 which prioritizes communication between devices using the internet and the use of big data. The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the main elements in the development of this revolution. With the existence of the IoT is very useful in various fields of life, one of which is in agriculture. Utilization of the IoT in agriculture can be applied to greenhouse technology. Greenhouse is a building that serves to create environmental conditions suitable for plant growth and maintenance. The application of IoT in this greenhouse system can monitor temperature, humidity, soil moisture, watering and fertilizing existing plants in the greenhouse automatically and in real time and farmers can control the plants remotely. This system uses a microcontroller as the control center of the sensors used. Soil moisture sensor and DHT22 sensor are used as input parameters that will send data to the microcontroller to be processed and produce output parameters such as fan exoust, water pump, and full spectrum leds. With this system can help farmers in caring for plants in the greenhouse so that plant growth can be optimized.
