Water Flow Control System Based on Context Aware Algorithm and IoT for Hydroponic

Abstract

Farming with using a hydroponic technique became a solution for future farming technique. Hydroponic uses water to provide nutrient and oxygen for the plant. Water must be distributed equally in all part of hydroponic pipes, so that every plants get same amount of nutrient. In order to control the water flow to be distributed equally, this research used servo valve controlled by microcontroller based on Internet of Things (IoT). Lastly, this research also observe the plant grows in the hydroponic that using this system. The result shows that the system can make the plant growth, like plant length and leave width will be more equal between growing tube.
