GREEN HOUSE AUTOMATION
Greenhouses are often used for growing flowers, vegetables & fruits plants. The
closed environment of a greenhouse has its own unique requirements, compared with
outdoor production. Pests and diseases, and extremes of heat and humidity, have to
be controlled, and irrigation is necessary to provide water. Significant inputs of heat
and light may be required, particularly with winter production of warm-weather
vegetable.A micro controller will be used to control the basic parameters of the green
house. An LDR will be used to measure the light intensity, Temperature sensor will
be used to get the temperature & timely irrigation will be provided by turning ON the
Motors at specific intervals. LCD will display the current temperature & light
intensity. EEPROM will be used to save the temperature set point, the light intensity
values & the time at which Motor has to be turned ON. RTC (Real Time Clock) will be
use to get the real time & according to time the controller will turn ON & OFF the
Motor. The setting for the temperature, light & Motor ON/OFF time is done through
PC.
