1.1.2 Reason for choosing the topic
Below are the reasons we decided to choose the topic: “Design and
Environmental Monitoring and Control using ESP32.” :
● IoT is a rapidly growing technology with many potential applications in agriculture IoT devices can be used to collect data about environmental conditions, such as temperature, humidity, light levels, and soil moisture This data can then be used to optimize crop yields and improve crop quality.
● The ESP32 is a powerful and flexible microcontroller suitable for IoT applications The ESP32 has a built-in WiFi and Bluetooth radio, making it easy to connect to the internet and other devices It also has a series of sensors and peripherals that can be used to collect environmental data.
● There is a growing demand for smart agriculture solutions that can help farmers improve productivity and reduce costs IoT-enabled smart agriculture labs can provide farmers with real-time data on environmental conditions and crop health This data can be used to
Trang 4make informed decisions about irrigation, fertilization, and pest control.
In addition to these reasons, I'm also interested in this topic because we believe it has the potential to make a real impact in the world Smart agriculture can help improve food security, reduce environmental impact and create new jobs We are excited to join this growing field and contribute to the development of new IoT-enabled smart agriculture solutions.
Here are some specific benefits of using IoT in agriculture:
● Increase crop yields: IoT can help farmers optimize their crop yields
by providing them with real-time data on environmental conditions and crop health This data can be used to make informed decisions about irrigation, fertilization, and pest control.
● Improve crop quality: IoT can help farmers improve the quality of
their crops by monitoring pests and diseases early This can help reduce crop losses and improve the overall quality of the harvest.
● Reduce costs: IoT can help farmers reduce costs by automating tasks
such as irrigation and fertilization This can help farmers save time and money, which can be reinvested in their business.
● Increased sustainability: IoT can help farmers make their operations
more sustainable by reducing water use and fertilizer runoff This can help protect the environment and ensure that future generations have access to clean water and healthy soil.
I believe that developing IoT-enabled smart agriculture labs is an important step towards a more productive and sustainable food system I'm excited to join this effort and contribute to the development of new technologies that can help farmers feed the world.
