AGRICULTURE MONITOR
AND CONTROL SYSTEM
OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this project is to android
application using monitor and control the
moisture level in garden through SMS.
BLOCK DIAGRAM:
WORKING :
This project is designed with following blocks
humility sensor, Float sensor, Amplifier,
Micro-Controller, LCD Display, Relay
Drivers, Motor and GSM. The variable
resistance obtained from the float sensor is
converted into variable voltage signal through
voltage converter circuit. The converted
voltage signal is given into the amplifier in
order to amplify the voltage signal.
PIC :
The microcontroller that has been used for this
project is from PIC series. PIC microcontroller
is the first RISC based microcontroller.
Technology that is used in pic16F877 is flash
technology, so that data is retained even
when the power is switched off.
FEAUTURES:
Up to 8K x 14 words of Flash Program
Memory,
Up to 368 x 8 bytes of Data Memory
(RAM)
Up to 256 x 8 bytes of EEPROM data
memory
In build ADC
It have five I/O ports PORT A,B,C,D,E.
MOISTURE SENSOR:
Soil moisture sensors measure the water
content in soil. A soil moisture probe is made
up of multiple soil moisture sensors. One
common type of soil moisture sensors in
commercial use is a a capacitance based
sensor.
HUMIDITY SENSOR:
A humidity sensor, also called a hygrometer,
measures and regularly reports the relative
humidity in the air. The most common type of
HUMIDITY SENSOR uses what is called
capacitive measurement. This system relies
on electrical capacitance, or the ability of two
nearby electrical conductors to create an
electrical field between them.
FLOAT SENSOR:
Float switches range from small to large and
may be as simple as a mercury switch inside a
hinged float or as complex as a series of
optical or conductance sensors producing
discrete outputs as the liquid reaches many
different levels within the tank. Perhaps the
most common type of float switch is simply a
float raising a rod that actuates a micro switch.
DRIVER CIRCUIT:
In electronics, a driver is an electrical circuit
or other electronic component used to control
another circuit or other component, such as a
high-power transistor
RELAY:
A relay is an electrically operated switch.
Current flowing through the coil of the relay
creates a magnetic field which attracts a lever
and changes the switch contacts. The coil
current can be on or off so relays have two
switch positions and they are double throw
(changeover) switches.
GSM MODEM:
A GSM modem is a specialized type of
modem which accepts a SIM card, and
operates over a subscription to a mobile
operator, just like a mobile phone. From the
mobile operator perspective, a GSM modem
looks just like a mobile phone.
LCD DISPLAY:
Liquid crystal displays (LCDs) have
materials which combine the properties of
both liquids and crystals. Rather than
having a melting point, they have a
temperature range within which the
molecules are almost as mobile as they
would be in a liquid, but are grouped
together in an ordered form similar to a
crystal.
ADVANTAGES:
AVOIDS WASTAGE AND SHORTAGE OF
WATER
FULLY AUTOMATIC
RELIABLE
ECONOMICAL
ELIMINATES DIFFICULTY OF MAN
POWER
APPLICATION:
CONCLUSION:
Nowadays technology developed very well.
Here we are going to use communication
technology in agriculture field. This makes the
process automated and also here we use GSM
technology, so there is no need for special
device to monitor the process, we can monitor
it through our personal mobile
