| Summary: | The previous chicken feeder system operates manually to feed the chicken. This system has error in amount of grain to feed, wasted grain and consume man power to operate it. After a few years, people move toward design the automatic system that need more energy, money and time to operate it which is need to be improved to satisfy the user requirements. A solution to these problems is to design an embedded system that provides a portable chicken feeder system that running by low power and low cost [1, 2]. This paper describe an automatic chicken feeder system that provide the user to select the desired amount of feed measurement, to select number of day to feed and the system will automatically feed the chicken. The system uses a microcontroller to read user selection, set the amount of grain and feed the chicken according to what the user select. A plate is used to control the grain from the storage and attached to a motor. The amount of grain to feed the chicken was performed by the software to control the microcontroller and interfacing circuits. |
