This project is an IoT design project for academic purpose. It will provide students with the methodology, concept and design of semi-automated gardening system with IoT. This will be illustrated through the construction of automated smart greenhouse system. Since the function of microprocessor, Raspberry pi is suited for IoT projects, hence, a microprocessor of Raspberry pi 3 B+ model will be used in this project. In the project, Raspberry pi will be used as a microprocessor to control the output of the whole system in order to ensure the system perform task properly. A small succulent plant, Tradescantia Pink Lady was planted under the services provided by the smart greenhouse system in order to prove the functionality of the smart greenhouse system. The system built included the techniques of IoT, which will receive the data from the sensors to justify the surrounding condition of the plant and the output will be treated as a coping mechanism which could provide the suitable services to the plant. In the project, the system design could be separated to 2 parts, which is hardware part and software part. Hardware part is included all the circuity designed, input components, output components and Raspberry pi microprocessor which can directly provide water, ultraviolet light and etc. to the plant. On the other hand, the software part is the program deploy by using python 3 language and Ubidots IoT platform dashboard is acted as the user interface to check the surrounding condition of the plant and control the output of the system. Last but not least, the smart greenhouse system is designed to produce an optimal condition for the plant to grow.
