“…The prototype has been developed with the purpose of firmware and software prototyping, in order to make the most of device performances. Since from the state of the art there are available non-flexible works that respect their project requirements only for specific scenario [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], we have chosen a flexible modular approach, for the design of our prototype, in order to test the best solution case by case basis. The electronic board is composed by a Green House Core, a Wi-Fi Module, a RS485 Module, an Analog-to-Digital Converter Module and a USB Module, all hosted on a Main Board.…”

The Internet of Things has a high impact on upgrade and transformation of the traditional greenhouse agricultural techniques. It is necessary to control the environmental factors for obtaining the optimum growth conditions for the crop and extend the production season to get the optimum yield. These aspects are fundamental for Agriculture 4.0, that uses technology not simply for the sake of innovation but to improve and address the real needs of consumers. In this paper, a prototype of a low-cost electronic platform for real time greenhouse environment monitoring has been designed, developed and built. The prototype has been developed with the purpose of firmware and software prototyping, in order to make the most of device performances. The electronic board is composed by a Main Board, a Green House Core, a Wi-Fi Module, a RS485 Module, an Analog-to-Digital Converter Module and a USB Module. The system permits to collect data by external sensors, elaborate and send them to external devices as laptop, smartphone and internet gateway, using both wired and wireless connection. These data concern to main greenhouse environmental parameters, such as air temperature, humidity, solar radiation, air velocity and CO2 concentration. A Web application has been implemented to allow users a consultation of greenhouse environmental state in a simple and fast way.

“…A smart home can be viewed as an environment in which computation and communication technologies are employed for the use and control of household appliances remotely or automatically through IoT, to establish an efficient but comfortable living environment for the resident [ 2 ]. Various wireless technologies that can support some form of remote data transfer, sensing and control, such as GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) [ 3 , 4 ], ZigBee [ 5 , 6 , 7 ], Wi-Fi [ 8 , 9 ], and Bluetooth [ 10 , 11 ], have been provided to embed various levels of intelligence for the smart home. Among the popular wireless connections that are often performed in a smart home, Bluetooth has a high potential in becoming an important technology for the IoT in low power, low cost and small devices.…”

With the advance of science and technology, people have a desire for convenient and comfortable living. Creating comfortable and healthy indoor environments is a major consideration for designing smart homes. As handheld devices become increasingly powerful and ubiquitous, this paper proposes an innovative use of smart handheld devices (SHD), using MIT App Inventor and fuzzy control, to perform the real-time monitoring and smart control of the designed intelligent windowsill system (IWS) in a smart home. A compact weather station that consists of environment sensors was constructed in the IWS for measuring of indoor illuminance, temperature-humidity, carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and outdoor rain and wind direction. According to the measured environment information, the proposed system can automatically send a command to a fuzzy microcontroller performed by Arduino UNO to fully or partly open the electric curtain and electric window for adapting to climate changes in the indoor and outdoor environment. Moreover, the IWS can automatically close windows for rain splashing on the window. The presented novel control method for the windowsill not only expands the SHD applications, but greatly enhances convenience to users. To validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the IWS, a laboratory prototype was built and confirmed experimentally.
