Hydrotechgrow: Smart Hydroponics Integrating IoT and Image Processing for Efficient Crop Management

Our main intention is to ensure that the entire process of hydroponic farming is enhanced by the use of sensors and cloud service platforms in order to monitor and control them. Apart from being sustainable and efficient, the hydroponic systems have come up as controlled environment crop production methods that provide optimal nutrient availability. In this project, we describe a new way of improving hydroponic farming by using the latest sensor technologies and computer vision. The system being developed includes the use of sensors that monitor factors such as temperature, humidity, TDS and pH in real time. The sensors give time-wise data that helps in achieving precise control and maintenance of the best growth conditions for different plant species.
