IoT (Internet of Things) is an evolution of the concept of Machine to Machine (M2M: Machine to Machine Communication). It is based on the connections between objects, people and services, and is based on data collected from various sensors and analysis. The concept is to provide new services. Recently, LTE-M technology using existing mobile communication network has been emphasized, and dedicated IOT dedicated network technologies such as LoRa are commercialized, using a mobile communication network and a wireless Internet network. Recently, small / low / have.

The prospect that the world's population will reach 9 billion by 2050 is well known. The survival of such a large population would require nearly twice as much food as now. As a result, the severity of land and arable land is increasing. Climate change due to marine fish overfishing and water shortages can have a serious impact on food production. To cope with the present and future problems of food and nutrition, with nearly one billion people worldwide suffering from chronic starvation, we need to reexamine the foods we eat and how we produce them.

Edible insects have always been a part of human food culture. But some societies have some dislike about eating insects. Most edible insects are collected in forest habitats, but in many countries they are attempting to innovate through mass-production systems. Insects provide meaningful opportunities to combine traditional knowledge with modern science in both developed and developing countries.

And to provide goods or services related to insects, such as the sale, as prescribed by Presidential Decree.

Breeding insects aims to artificially provide the environment that best suits the physiological and ecological characteristics of insects so that optimal productivity can be derived.

In general, insect breeding facilities are used to raise insects such as sleds, crickets, and locusts in greenhouses or breeding houses regardless of season, because they are directly affected by temperature, humidity and light. It is absolutely necessary to maintain the environmental conditions, and it is important to cope with the environment abnormality of insect rearing quickly and prevent it from occurring.

However, the conventional environment control arbitrarily sets environmental setting values such as temperature, humidity, and light inputted by the user, based on the experiential knowledge or skill of the farmer. In addition, warning lamps and alarms are used at low cost to inform the environment in the breeding room. However, it is difficult for the user to observe the warning light even if there is an abnormality, There is a problem that it is necessary to individually check where there is an abnormality.

In addition, there is a case where the house and the alarm buzzer are connected to each other. However, it is possible to install the house when the user's house is short distance, but it is difficult to maintain the house by using the alarm buzzer It is extremely limited, and it is necessary to confirm whether or not there is an abnormality only on a limited basis, so that various operational problems are always implied.

Therefore, since the environmental composition is made on the basis of empirical knowledge or technology of the farmers, there is a difference in environmental management level between farms, which leads to insect growth and production, Causing waste of energy.

In addition, insect growth is deteriorated due to the inability to cope with the abnormal situation which occurs at the same time, insects which are not excellent in quality are provided, and productivity and quality are lowered in insect farms such as greenhouses and breeding houses, There is a problem that the reliability of the system is minimized.
