Description

Farming fish gill water quality monitoring and reporting system and method

The invention relates to an instant monitoring and notification system and a monitoring method, and in particular to a system and method for real-time monitoring and notification of water quality of farmed fish.

At present, the maintenance methods of traditional aquaculture fisheries, including water exchange, gas supply, and water temperature adjustment, are all carried out through manual judgment. In order to achieve more efficient breeding results, farmers usually use a variety of electronic sensing devices and water reagents to obtain various water quality information in the pond, and use a variety of automated devices (such as filters, pumping, heating) Rods and other farming equipment) to adjust the ecological environment conditions of the surimi. Since the current commercial aquarium electronic equipment is poorly expandable and needs to be manually set, when the breeding unit is growing more and more large, the traditional fish farming method will consume a lot of manpower, and the less expandable electronic equipment will make the fish ecological Adjustments to environmental conditions are limited.

For example, the water temperature of traditional aquaculture fisheries is adjusted to full manual test and diversion cooling method. One of the fish ponds in the indoor farm is used as a water temperature monitoring sample. If the water temperature is too high, the cooling machine is manually started. The water diversion operation of all fish ponds in the farm is carried out, and individual monitoring and adjustment cannot be carried out for each pool condition. . If the temperature is too low, connect the traditional water temperature heater. One heater can connect four heating rods at the same time (adjust the water temperature of the four pools), but after heating, only the water temperature measurement control can be performed for one of the four pools.

The central control unit 206 can also receive the control command issued by the mobile electronic device 108, and adjust the control parameters of the breeding node 102 according to the control command to effectively adjust the water quality of the culture node 102 to an optimal state.

In addition, when the breeding node 102 is in an abnormal state, the central control unit 206 can also send an alert signal to the mobile electronic device 108, so that the user can make a corresponding strain processing at the first time. For example, the central control unit 206 can be designed to store a plurality of sets of telephone numbers. When the breeding node 102 is in an abnormal state, the warning message is simultaneously sent to the plurality of sets of telephone numbers. If no user returns are received within the preset time, Then, the warning message is sent again, and the notification failure is not recorded until the number of times the warning message is sent reaches the preset number of times. In addition, after the warning signal received by the mobile electronic device 108, the user can be reminded by sound, light or vibration, until the user confirms that the warning signal is received, the warning is stopped, and the fishing game is automatically returned. The alert signal of the monitoring and notification system 200 has been confirmed.
