| Summary: | The hobby of fish keeping has seen its popularity decrease within the recent years in
Singapore, partially due to change of lifestyle of the Singaporeans. Most fish hobbyists
have been turned away by the responsibilities of maintaining an aquarium. This project
aims to utilise the flexibility and low cost of an Arduino Microcontroller board to control
a fish tank in order to solve existing problems faced by the fish hobbyists in Singapore.
The system seeks to utilise Arduino to automate functions such as water changing, food
dispensing and lighting control that would eliminate the inconvenience caused when
maintaining a fish tank. Additional features such as touchscreen, voice recognition are
included to improve user experience. This report documents the process of developing
the hardware and software of certain features of the system and integration of the features
into a complete final product. The final product had managed to solve the problems
encountered and improvements can be made to further enhance the overall fish keeping
experience. |
