Abstract

The purpose of this final year project is to build a livestock automatic feeding and monitoring system (LIFE). It is a machine that able to automatic feed animals with a fixed amount of food in time. It also able to help farmers reduce time and cost used for the feeding process. This system only can be used to feed grass or hay. Furthermore, this project is system integration but with small part of fabrication, which means the mechanical part of the system need to be designed creatively and fabricated. There are two methods to operate the system, which are setting timer and GSM modem. GSM method runs the system by sending or receiving the text or PDU messages through microcontroller. Then, power window motor is vital to control the latching and releasing process; feeding process will be suspended if the motor not function. Besides, the project was separated into few stages in order to ensure the system can be completed smoothly. Then, the combination of box container and mechanical part of the system was done successfully after test it by using 12 volts power supply This preliminary report will provides the details of literature reviews, discussion about whole process of the project, results been done according to schedule and the future work of the project. In addition, the knowledge by doing this final year project is important because it can be used and applied in real working world after graduated.
