PROPOSED MODEL FOR
AUTOMATION OF GREENHOUSE
The proposed system is an embedded system which will closely
monitor and control the microclimatic parameters of a
greenhouse.

To eliminate the difficulties involved in the system by reducing

human intervention to the best possible extent.

LIGHT SENSOR

Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) also known as

photoconductor or photocell,

It is a device which has a resistance which varies according to

the amount of light falling on its surface. Since LDR is extremely
sensitive in visible light range, it is well suited for the proposed
application.
Temperature sensor (LM35)
National Semiconductor’s LM35 IC has been used for
sensing the temperature.
It is an integrated circuit sensor that can be used to
measure temperature with an electrical output
proportional to the temperature (in oC).
The sensor circuitry is sealed and not subject to
oxidation, etc.
Formula Used:
Temperature ( oC) = (Vout * 100 ) / 5 oC
ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER (ADC

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY
A liquid crystal display (LCD) is a thin, flat
display device made up of any number of color
or monochrome pixels arrayed in front of a light
source or reflector.
Data can be placed at any location on the LCD.
For 16×2 LCD, the address locations are:
First line 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 through 8F
Second line C0 C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 through CF
Logic status on control lines:
E - 0 Access to LCD disabled
- 1 Access to LCD enabled
R/W - 0 Writing data to LCD
- 1 Reading data from LCD
RS - 0 Instruction
- 1 Character
ADVANTAGES
Sensors used have high sensitivity and are easy to handle.

Low cost system, providing maximum automation.

Low maintenance and low power consumption.

Natural resource like water saved to a great extent.

In response to the sensors, the system will adjust the heating,

fans, lighting, irrigation immediately, hence protect greenhouse
from damage.

Endangered plant species can be saved.

DISADVANTAGES
Complete automation in terms of pest and insect detection and
eradication cannot be achieved.

No self-test system to detect malfunction of sensors.

Requires uninterrupted power supply.

FUTURE SCOPE
The performance of the system can be further improved in terms
of the operating speed, memory capacity, instruction cycle period
of the microcontroller by using other controllers such as AVRs
and PICs.
The number of channels can be increased to interface more
sensors which is possible by using advanced versions of
microcontrollers.
A speaking voice alarm could be used instead of the normal
buzzer.
Time bound administration of fertilizers, insecticides and
pesticides can be introduced
A multi-controller system can be developed that will enable a
master controller along with its slave controllers to automate
multiple greenhouses simultaneously.
CONCLUSION
The greenhouse environment has to be closely
monitored so that plants grow in the best possible
conditions. A plant that grows in an environment where
temperature, moisture, light and humidity levels are
ideal and continuous will be as strong and healthy as it
can possibly be.
