Description
Summary:This project is about a design of miniature greenhouse that is equipped with the automated monitoring system. The system will constantly monitor the natural environmental conditions in the greenhouse to ensure that the plant will achieve the maximum plant growth. There are two sensors, which operate in the real-time, that will be used - temperature sensor and air humidity sensor to monitor the conditions. The output of the sensors will provide the inputs to a microcontroller, PIC16F877A, which act as the brain and compares these values with the preset values. Subsequently, the microcontroller will actuate the environment maintaining devices, respectively according to the necessary condition of the plant. Besides, output from microcontroller also will give the input to the LCD to display the temperature and air humidity reading of the greenhouse.
