Arduino-Based Sensor System Prototype for Microclimate Monitoring of an Experimental Greenhouse

Arduino-based sensor systems are gaining widespread adoption in modern technological applications due to their accessibility, low-cost components, diverse sensor compatibility, high reliability, and user-friendly programming. Because of these advantages, such a system was selected to monitor and control microclimate parameters in a small-scale experimental greenhouse. The greenhouse will cultivate several vegetable species in soils with varying zeolite concentrations. The aim of this paper is to present the design and prototype development of a sensor system capable of tracking key environmental parameters, including temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and soil moisture, while also enabling automated irrigation.
