Abstract

Indoor farming has been a topic that is most discussed in the agriculture field. It is a technique that significantly conserves natural resources such as water and land without affecting the surrounding environment. This is crucial because it improves the productivity of the plant. All the environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and soil moisture level are being tracked with the implementation of IoT Technology. The main objective of this project is to build an automated lighting and irrigation system that increase the productivity of the plant and feedback the status of the plant at anywhere and anytime. In this project, sensors such as right-angle floating switch (water level sensor), DHT11 (temperature and humidity sensor), FC-28 (soil moisture sensor), and BH1750FVI (light sensor) are installed to monitor the growth conditions of the plants. At the same time, the data collected from the sensors will be displayed to Blynk, an open-source platform through the ESP-01 Wi-Fi serial transceiver module and processed by Arduino Uno. With such development, the productivity and growth will be tracked from time to time without having the user at the event.
