Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an embedded agricultural automation system,

The present invention relates to an agricultural automation system based on an embedded system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting data received from various sensor units required for crop management to a control unit and a server unit, operating a driving unit according to data set by a server unit, and producing an administrator control screen using a computer web page and an Android application, It is composed of a software department that can detect the temperature, humidity, intrusion detection, and farm conditions of the farm. By automating the remote control of the environment necessary for the management of crops, it is possible to minimize the labor required for the management of crops, The present invention relates to an agricultural automation system based on an embedded system capable of exchanging and sharing information related to standard cultivation of crops in real time.

In general, crops are required to have a lot of labor and experience in their management because crops and quality are greatly affected by external environmental changes such as temperature and humidity. In addition, it is difficult to share information on the management methods of specific crops through the exchange of opinions with the relevant experts, and it tends to depend on the experience of the administrator himself or herself.

In recent years, the trend toward well-being has led to a growing enthusiasm for earnestness, and the number of people practicing it is increasing. However, most of these are insufficient in preparation, and it is difficult to take immediate action if there are factors affecting crop yield or quality due to environmental changes such as pests and climate change in the crops being managed. There is a problem in that it is difficult to share the information related to the standard cultivation technique through the exchange of opinions among the experts or the crop growers having similar experiences.

It is possible to easily monitor the information of the cultivation area and to manage the crops easily by providing the service that the user can monitor the data such as the environment of the crop growing area and the image information through the Internet However, these systems do not provide a system to control the growth process of crops as compared with the standard crop cultivation technology in the case of the sensor server system to be monitored. Therefore, the system can not actively manage environment factors suitable for cultivation There is a problem.

In addition, when a wireless communication device including a Wi-Fi is attached to the control unit 20, the wireless communication with the server unit 40 is possible. The control unit 20 controls the water supply device and the illumination device of the driving unit 30 based on the setting data stored in the existing server unit 40 when the user does not operate it, The server 40 transmits a log to the server 40. [ The data to be transmitted to the server unit 40 is transmitted at regular intervals after arranging the data to be transmitted. For example, a jar file created using JAVA confirms the log coming in from the serial port of the server unit 20, and immediately stores the received data in the database of the server unit in association with the data base program of the server unit 40.

The driving unit 30 is a device driven by a driving signal of the control unit 20 and is capable of supplying water including a temperature control device such as a fan, a boiler, a hot wire, etc. for controlling cooling and heating of a cultivation facility, A water supply device such as a sprinkler, and an illumination device such as a coarse LED necessary for growth, and is driven in accordance with a control signal of the control unit 20. [

The server unit 40 can perform wireless communication by bidirectional serial communication with the control unit 20 or by attaching a Wi-Fi wireless communication device. The server unit 40 receives and stores data on a growth environment necessary for growing crops from the sensor unit 10 , Monthly, seasonally, and data related to standard cultivation techniques of crops already stored in the server unit 40, and transmits the results to the administrator periodically. The server unit 40 may be configured using an APM (Apache, PHP, Mysql), or may be implemented simply as a general personal computer. The standard cultivation technique and related data stored in the server unit 40 are compared with data transmitted from the sensor unit 10 to determine whether a growth condition of the crop has occurred or not, Thereby overcoming the shortage.

 Referring to FIG. 3, the software unit 50 may be composed of various modules, and each module performs the following functions.

The administrator control screen module 60 is implemented in a web page accessible by a computer and a smart device application including an Android used in a smart device, and is connected to an administrator server, and detects real time temperature, humidity, intrusion detection And the status of the farm. A login process can be added to block access by unauthorized users, and this module allows you to set the operating period of the lighting and hydrants in crop fields. In the first screen after login, the user can select and confirm the crops cultivated on his / her farm and select the crops cultivated, data on the farm plant environment stored in the database of the server unit 40 can be implemented on the screen . If you add new crops, you can set the farm's illuminance and the operating cycle of the hydrants by default.

The external intrusion notification module 70 is a module that detects an intrusion by generating a warning sound by a web page or a smart device when an intrusion of an external is detected and uses a push function of a smart phone to allow the user to operate the state of a farm anywhere Can be confirmed.

The information sharing module is a module that can exchange the standard cultivation of crops and related information in real time among the specific crop growers through the social network. If they want to cultivate specific crops, Will be a way to reduce trial and error associated with the cultivation of specific crops by exchanging information among other growers. Using this module, experts of the relevant crops can get real-time information about the farm situation, so that they can analyze the information about the cultivation environment and take measures about it.

When a new farm is added to an existing farm, the sensor unit 10, the control unit 20, and the drive unit 30, which are used in the existing farm, are combined into one module and added to the new farm, In the initial setup of the new farm, it is possible to reduce the time required to construct the growth environment such as temperature and humidity necessary for the growth of the crop in the same environment as the existing farm, and to reduce the cost, There is an advantage to be able to do.

The data stored in relation to the standard cultivation technique of crops by week, month, and season in the server unit 40 can be transmitted to the user's computer or smart device according to the cultivation schedule of the crop, It is possible to perform the schedule management in advance and to compare the state of the standard cultivation technique stored in the server unit 40 with the state of the crop transmitted from the sensor unit 10 and periodically transmit the result to the user's computer or smart device, And if the data related to the standard cultivation technique stored in the server unit 40 and the data transmitted from the sensor unit do not coincide with each other, it is possible to notify the cultivator and take a corresponding action.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications, substitutions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims. will be.
