Introduction to Greenhouse
Greenhouses are best controlled-area-environment to grow different plants.
It is a building with mix of covering materials, such as
a glass or plastic roof and frequently glass or plastic walls.
Plant Growth Chamber is heated due to incoming visible solar radiation
falling on the glass material which is transparent from the sun. These
radiation are absorbed by plants ,soil, and other things inside the building
and remains inside in the form of heat.

3. In turn, the glass absorbs the long

wavelength IR and warms up. The glasses in
turn emits long wave length IR, which is again
reflected back to Green House
3. Warmed objects emits
long wave length IR light
1. Short wave length IR light

from the sun passes through
the glass
2. Objects inside
the green house
absorbs short
wave length IR
light and
becomes warmer
Automated greenhouse
Greenhouses acts as an important part of the agriculture and horticulture
sectors of a country.
Green House are used to cultivate plants under controlled climatic
conditions for optimal production.
Auto Monitored greenhouse helps in the automatic monitoring and
controlling of climatic parameters which effects the plant growth and their
production.
So to control the climate factors and environment autonomously , sensors
and embedded controllers are required.
SOLUTION FOR EMBEDDED SYSTEM

The open-source electronics embedded system platform
What is Arduino system ?

Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform
and environment .
The Arduino is built for designers, developers and
entrepreneurs
Programming of Arduino
The Arduino Uno is programmed with the Arduino software IDE .
The Atmega328 on the Arduino Uno comes preburned with a Boot
loader which allows to upload a new code without the use of an
external hardware programmer.
Arduino can also be programmed by bypassing the Bootloader and
microcontroller through the ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming)
header.
Arduino IDE is supported on windows , linux and Mac lion X
platforms.
Arduino IDE Programming Environment
Arduino
Arduino was started in 2005, a project to control a device
made by beginners. Built with interactive design projects that
was less expensive than other prototyping systems available at
the time.
Massimo Banzi and David Cuartielles named the project after
Arduin of Ivrea and began producing boards in Ivrea.

Ambient Light Sensor

A light sensor, as its name suggests, is a device
that is used to detect light.
A photocell or photo resistor for example, is a
small sensor that changes its resistance when
light shines on it; they are used in many
consumer products to determine the intensity
of light.
Operating temperature: -20C to 75C
Wavelength Measurement Range: 400nm to
1100nm
Temperature Sensor
Manufacturer: Texas Instruments LM35

FEATURES DESCRIPTION:
Calibrated Directly in Celsius (Centigrade)
Linear + 10 mV/C Scale Factor
0.5C Ensured Accuracy (at +25C)
LM35 has an advantage over linear temperature
Rated for Full 55C to +150C Range
Suitable for Remote Applications
Low Cost Due to Wafer-Level Trimming
Operates from 4 to 30
Low Self-Heating, 0.08C in Still Air
Nonlinearity Only C Typical
Low Impedance Output, 0.1 for 1 mA Load
Humidity Sensor
A humidity sensor, also called a hygrometer, measures and regularly
reports the relative humidity in the air.
Humidity sensor SY-HS-220 is used to sense the humidity of the air in
the green house.
The warmer the air is, the more moisture it
can hold, so relative humidity changes
with fluctuations in temperature.
Operating temperature: 5C to 45C
Humidity Measurement Range: 5%RH to
95%RH.
If the humidity exceeds the maximum limit
then the exhaust fan attached with Arduino
will be switched ON automatically.
Moisture sensor
Soil moisture sensor measure the water
content in soil.
This basic cheap soil moisture sensor consists
of two probes (the metal rods) held apart at a
fixed distance by some insulating material.

To ensure circuit functions properly, followed

100 Ohm
To obtain required current flows, applied
Ohms law and obtained current limiting
resistor for collector to be 10 and 100 for
the base.
These specifications enable circuit to
function properly
Relay to Turn ON/OFF Fluorescent

Light bulb, water Pump and fans
DC voltage: 5V
DC current: 500mA.
Relay enables AC current to flow by
implementing a switch within the device
which is controlled by DC current.
The relay is supposed to allow AC current
through when no dc current is flowing.
When DC current is passes through, relay
will flick switch to ground, therefore
causing open circuit for AC current flow.

Power supply
Software
Arduino IDE 1.0.1
The Arduino integrated development

environment (IDE) is a cross-platform app.
written in Java, and is derived from the IDE
for the Processing programming language
and the Wiring projects.
A program or code written for Arduino is
called a "sketch".
The Arduino IDE uses the GNU toolchain and
AVR Libc to compile programs, and uses
avrdude to upload programs to the board.
Output of the sensors

Temperature sensor:
If the temperature exceeds beyond the limit set then a fan will be automatically
switched
ON as a coolant to reduce the temperature.
When it reaches the desired temperature the fan will be switched OFF
automatically with the help of a relay.
But if the temperature decreases bellow the optimum temperature a bulb as a
heater will be switched ON to set the temperature within the desired range.
Light sensor:
Light sensor sense the light and set an optimum light in the greenhouse for the
plants.
An artificial light will be switched ON automatically by the light sensor with the
help of relay if there is insufficient light for the plants in the greenhouse
And the light is switched OFF automatically when the plants get sufficient light
from the sun.
Moisture sensor:
Soil moisture sensor check the water present in the soil.
If there is not proper water in the soil then moisture sensor sends
signal to the water pump which as a result pumps up the water
from the tank and provide sufficient amount of water to the soil.
When the sensor senses the threshold value of water level in the
soil it automatically turn OFF the pump.
Humidity sensor:
Humidity sensor is used to check the humidity of the air in the
greenhouse.
If the humidity exceeds the limit set then an exhaust fan will be
switched ON with the help of relay to throw the humid air out of
the greenhouse to maintain the suitable environment for the
plants.

RESULTS/CONCLUSION OF PROJECT
Temperature, Heat, Moisture and Light Sensors are the four main
sensors used in the project which give the exact value of
temperature, heat, moisture and light respectively. These sensors
give the correct result according to the plant's condition. These
results can be seen on the LCD screen present on the project and
on a INTERNET WEBSITE.
