Summary: | Fish keeping is known to be helpful in reducing stress, lowering blood pressure and a
good therapy for people suffering from insomnia. Although fishes are easier to care
and require lesser attention, but the environment they live in requires constant
maintenance and monitoring. Due to the busy lifestyle of Singaporean, fish hobbyists
find difficulties in dedicating time for daily fish care process and essential fish tank
maintenance work. In addition, there is a lack of solutions available to help improve
the situation, some fish hobbyists decided to stop keeping fish aquarium at home.
This Final Year Project is to design a ‘smart’ Arduino controlled fish tank to enhance
and improve fish keeping experience. Functions such as food dispensing, water
changing, lighting are implemented to eliminate the workload of the fish aquarium
keepers. Functions such as touch screen, voice recognition and light show are
implemented to create an interactive fish tank. This report will cover the research
conducted, the hardware installation and software implementation that was carried
out when developing the final product, together with the recommendations to further
improve this system. |
