Abstract

This article is related to designing a home greenhouse monitoring system using WSN and IoT technologies. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and Internet of Things (IoT) technology are the most advanced IT technologies and provide fast and distributed data collection and monitoring in various industries and widespread access to use. The developed “Microclimate GH” system allows for accurate measurements and monitoring of the microclimate of the home mini-greenhouse in real time through a mobile application. Monitoring data can be stored in the cloud and displayed in the form of reports and graphs and will be available for analysis at any time. Three important processes are being implemented: cooling, watering and lighting. The results of graphs and histograms analysis help the user to timely and accurately identify microclimate violations and take the necessary measures.

The proposed system is implemented on the basis of the ESP32 microcontroller with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules, which has a significant advantage over the analogue of the ESP8266. The developed system compares favourably with its other prototypes by its accessibility to a wide user, good communication quality, good design and construction. The economic effect of using the proposed technology amounted to 10,000 tenge, the payback period is 4 seasons.
