AHPI: Automação de horta portátil inteligente

Abstract

The great demand for healthy foods and well-known sources, as well as the little time that the individuals of the new technological world have available, are factors that result in the necessity of the creation of equipment that is able to help in the development, autonomously, of natural foods. Thus, the creation of an automatic system that can assist in the care of a home garden, as well as in research in the field of agrarian sciences is of extreme importance since it leads to the possibility of obtaining natural products from a particular vegetable garden, in addition to standardize the methodology appropriate to each research, be it the use of substrates to replace the soil, new formulas of nutrient solutions and how different types of vegetables behave with alteration of these factors - Soil and Nutrients. The objective of this work is to automate a portable vegetable garden, to equip the convenience of the current residences and to offer the consumer a healthy food without having to worry about the treatments that a plant needs, this through electronic circuits controlled by microcontrollers (ATMEGA 238), in addition to the aid of sensors to verify the levels of reservoir.
