IoT based automated sericulture system

Abstract

Sericulture denotes to the rearing of silkworm to produce silk. Parameters like Temperature, Humidity and Light intensity are the important factors in the progression of silkworms and suitable encouraging must to be done according to the requisites in every stage. Environmental variations assume as the important part in the growth and development of silkworm. Sericulture is the important occupation in India and the techniques used by the agriculturists are yet outdated. Hereafter there is the need of developing modernization in sericulture cultivate. This endeavor gives a thought of providing automation in sericulture cultivate. The model goals at making use of developing technology that is IOT and smart Sericulture using automation. Observing environmental parameters of the silkworm rearing house is the most important aspect to improve vintage of the silk. The specialty of this model comprises enhancement of a system which can observe temperature, humidity, light power through sensors using NodeMCU and in case of any variations in the parameters send a notification on the user mobile application using internet connection. This system permits for data assessment and scheduling to be programmed through the arduino IDE software.
