Abstract

A greenhouse is a building where plants are grown. Greenhouses are often used for growing flowers, vegetables, fruits, and tobacco plant. Most greenhouse system still uses the manual system in monitoring the temperature and humidity in the greenhouse, a lot of problem can occurred not for worker but also affected production rate because the temperature and humidity of greenhouse must be constantly monitored to ensure optimal conditions. The wireless sensor network can be used to gather the data from point to point to trace down the local climate parameters in different parts of the big greenhouse to make the greenhouse automation system work properly. The aim project is developing a greenhouse monitoring system to monitor a greenhouse temperature and humidity parameters by applying the Zigbee a wireless device as the wireless sensor network system. In this project, Zigbee will be used as a wireless device and the temperature and humidity sensor will be used to collect data of temperature and humidity in the greenhouse. This project is combination of hardware such as PIC Microcontroller, LCD Display and Zigbee as the main hardware components and C Compiler and MP Lab IDE for the main of software elements that could support up to 100 meters. The data from the greenhouse will be measured by the sensor and the data that are collected will be sending to the receiver. The data that has been read will be displayed on the LCD screen. By using this system, the process of monitoring is easier and it is also cheaper for installation and maintenance process.
