Arduino

What is Arduino?!!!!!!
  • Arduino is a platform for building an Embedded System used to sense and control the physical world around it. 
  • Arduino was developed in Italy by Massimo Banzi and group which is  Open Sourced (Hardware & Software) and available to everyone.
  • Arduino is a small circuit board with an Atmel MicroController chip and other peripherals. 
  • Intended to be used by both professionals who loves to explore and non-technical people with no previous programming experience. 
  • In short Arduino is a "Rapid Electronics Prototyping Platform" having an open source hardware board possessing microcontroller and peripherals capable of  sensing/controlling both analog and digital entities. The arduino software is an free Integrated Development Environment (IDE) runs on both Windows and Linux machine.


Smart Poultry Management System


Brief Introduction


This work aims to provide details on how to build an automated Environment Controlled Poultry Management System (ECPMS) using low cost commodity hardware and open source software. A comprehensive system was built using Raspberry Pi, used as a linux embedded system board and Arduino-Uno board for interfacing with different sensors. The system was thoroughly investigated for various physical parameters associated with effective poultry management which includes temperature, humidity, moisture content in the air and air quality. It was found that the system not only monitors these parameters, but also regulates these parameters effectively. The framework was observed to be very useful for farmers as they could easily access and control the system remotely using their handheld mobile devices. The system reduces human intervention, saves time, optimizes resource utilization and increases poultry production.
