What Problem are am I trying to solve
The Arduino-Datalogger was designed to create the “perfect” environmental conditions for optimal maintenance and growth of plants (through remote monitoring). A cost-benefit analysis of the system showed a Net Benefit of over $7000.00 saved per year if implemnted.
In making this website I focused on the following areas (Project Requirements):
Value/Benefit to the user
+ Remote/automated monitoring
+ Creating the “perfect” environmental conditions for optimal maintenance and growth (yield plants/crop all year)
+ Minimizing some of the risk and effects of unpredictable elements
+ Make important business decisions
+ Lower human errors
Criteria and Goals
+ Intended for small indoor farms /Greenhouses
+ Free for everyone to use - Open source
+ Easy to understand and use for the end user
+ Low cost (Hardware and Software) - MySQL, Google Docs etc.
+ Simple Maintenance
Software Selection & Implementation
Frontend: HTML, CSS
Backend: C++
