Greenhouse Climate Controller by Using of Internet of Things Technology and Fuzzy Logic

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new, ongoing revolution. It often uses wireless sensor network (WSN) technologies because these technologies are among the most important solutions for monitoring and controlling the systems. This article provides a model of a smart greenhouse. In this regard, the main contribution of this paper is an innovative implementation of a micro-climate controlled environment for optimal plant growth, based on loT technology and using a fuzzy logic controller. Using this system, we attempted to optimize the functionality of the system proposed by exploiting an Arduino UNO board for data acquisition and processing. The input variables are analog values captured by ZigBee wireless network sensors that are then processed using fuzzy logic control software with heating and extractor control signals. At the same time, all data were sent to the server through a Wi-Fi internet connection, which permitted remote monitoring and analysis of the data via a web browser with tablets, smartphones, and laptops. Results show that the choice of a fuzzy logic controller could promote a comfortable greenhouse micro-climate. Also, we showed the efficiency of our proposed solution for greenhouse climate remote monitoring anywhere via IoT technology.

Estufas Inteligentes e Eficientes Energeticamente: uma análise descritiva da literatura

“…Ao apontar o ganho de produtividade, que se obtém por meio das estufas inteligentes, Sahour et al (2021) corroboram a ideia com a informação de que cerca de 70% do tempo de trabalho dos agricultores é gasto supervisionando a área plantada. Uma vez que as estufas inteligentes propõem um sistema automatizado, sem interferência humana.…”

“…Garantir alimento de forma segura e sustentável à população mundial é um dos principais desafios globais atualmente. Esse desafio torna-se ainda maior frente às diversas prospecções de crescimento populacional, pois estima-se que a população mundial aumentará, pelo menos, até meados do século 21, aproximando-se de nove bilhões de pessoas por volta do ano de 2050 (BAULCOMBE et al, 2009;SAHOUR et al, 2021).…”

“…Assegurar o suprimento de alimentos para a população global demandará novas terras cultiváveis, equivalentes em território ao tamanho do Brasil. Tal desafio requer esforço internacional urgente e conjunto, colocando a ciência como protagonista para desempenhar papel vital nessa resposta (SAHOUR et al, 2021).…”

Telehealth care enhancement using the internet of things technology

“…Real-time embedded systems are generally used on the small end of the size scale [23]. For this purpose, the Arduino Uno microcontroller was used as the base station controller of the client part, we have opted for the Arduino Uno microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P, given that its characteristics are enough for the task [24]. It is inexpensive and compact; it eliminates the necessity of a computer and has low power consumption.…”

Reliability Evaluation of Direct Current Distribution System for Intelligent Buildings Based on Big Data Analysis

“…Recent years have witnessed the proliferation of the Internet of things (IoT) and the rapid development of the IoT technologies. This stimulates a growing demand for internal-external information exchange, safety, comfort, convenience, and energy conservation of buildings [1][2][3][4]. Focusing on user experience, intelligent buildings have set an energy-saving trend in the building industry.…”
