An Overview Of Smart Garden Automation

Abstract

Several technological advancements have been made over the years, more recently the invention of Internet of Things (IOT). IOT enables connection and interaction of things on a daily basis, this involves automation processes that require little or no human intervention to perform various tasks with sensors, RFID, actuators and microcontrollers among others. Agriculture is vital to human existence as it helps sustain lives by providing food. This paper provides the potential benefits of Smart Garden Automation through the technology of IOT for efficient food production and food security. This study shows the components required for Smart Garden Automation with the existing systems, such as microcontroller and sensors which is linked to a cloud storage of data and connected via the internet with live feeds of event statistics being displayed through mails or a frontend application.
