IoT-based Monitoring and Control System for Hydroponic Cultivation: A Comprehensive Study

Abstract

In this study, we provide an IoT-based approach for observing and managing a hydroponic system. A multitude of sensors is built into the system to assess important factors like temperature, humidity, nutrient levels, pH, and water levels. These sensors are linked to a microcontroller or single-board computer, which gathers and sends the data to a platform that is situated in the cloud for archival and analysis. A web or mobile application allows users to remotely access the data and manage the system. The system also features automated control that modifies humidity, temperature, and nutrient levels according to sensor data and predetermined criteria. The suggested system provides an all-inclusive and effective approach for regulating and monitoring hydroponic systems, and it is easily adaptable to various hydroponic conditions and systems. We show our suggested system's utility and viability through experiments and results.
