Abstract

The objective of this research is to design automatically feeding system. The existing technologies, this system was brought many design and revolutions. The method of this system needs to be considered as fish must be fed with regard to time. The device supply using solar energy and battery as a backup supply during the night. Solar energy can be an alternative solution to energy crisis because the power of solar is a renewable energy. The researchers believe, the improvement of this system can be useful and suitable to apply in aquaculture environment. This automatic system makes the works easier and may help reduces working hours. The aims of this project to distributes the feed more widely not just to drop to one point. The feed will release with assistance of air stream of a power blower and disperses the feed onto surface of the pond. This project developed to accurate the feeding time in a correct period of time to be more productive. The feeds will be stored in a tank and this feeder also provide detector sensor which can detect if food in tank is decrease. This method is more efficient from previous design that use manual system to -control food of capacity inside the tank.
