Aim
The aim of the project is to Monitor and control greenhouse conditions for optimal plant growth.
Problem statement
The system should be able to monitor and adjust temperature and light levels based on the specific requirements of different plants, considering factors such as time of day, season, and plant developmental stages. The goal is to create an automated and efficient solution that maximizes plant productivity while minimizing energy consumption.
Material used
Input: Tempertaure Sensor and Light Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: DC Motor and Servo Motor
Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
Light sensor
Temperature sensor
The function of temperature sensor is to detect the temperature and send the signal to the Brain unit (TinkerSpace board).
DC Motor
DC motor is used to maintain the temperature when the temperature is too high
Servo Motor
Servo motor is used to open and close the window to maintain the appropriate light required for Greenhouse
TinkerSpace Brain Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor Tempertaure Sensor and Light Sensors and control the DC Motor and Servo Motor.
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case 1: When temperature is low, temperature sensor turns OFF and sends the signal to the brain board. The brain board turns off the fan.
Case 2:When temperature is high, temperature sensor turns ON and sends the signal to the brain board. The brain board turns on the fan.
Case 3: When the light is less , light sensor turns OFF and sends the signal to the brain board. The brain board oscillates the servo motor to 0 Degree(Window opens partially).
Case 4: When the light is more, light sensor turns ON and sends the signal to the brain board. The brain board oscillates the servo motor to 60 Degree(Window closes partially).
Circuit Design (DesignSpace)
Step 1: Connect TEMPERTURE SENOSOR to input 1 and LIGHT SENSOR to input 2
Step 2: Connect DC MOTOR to output 1 and SERVO MOTOR to output 2
Step 3: Connect supply and test project.
