1. Principles and practices¶
This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process. I call it the Smart Backyard Greenhouse (SBG).
Research¶
This idea came when I stayed in a big city for some months. the thought of a smart greenhouse for urban settlers. So this is basically a greenhouse that is going to be controlled using a microcontroller, some sensors, light bulbs, water pump and a ventilation fan to cool down the greenhouse. These will measure and collect the data from the various sensors like the temperature sensors, moisture sensors, photo sensors. Which will then be used to produce the necessary weather conditions for healty plant growth. Data collected for the sensors will be displayed and sent to the user through a mobile app.
