The management control system for plant factory that uses the IoT technology in combination with Augmented Reality technology

The Internet of Things (IoT) technology is widely used in various fields and continues to develop rapidly. However, the IoT has always been confined to the stage where things are connected by things. This plan applies IoT technology in combination with Augmented Reality(AR) technology into management control system for plant factory. This system includes an environmental parameter monitoring system and a navigation information system. The IoT technology is used to integrate environmental parameters and the status of various equipment in the control parameters to achieve things and things connection. Using augmented reality technology can directly integrate various information Intuitive feedback to the operator that complete the connection between people and things. This project uses the ESP8266 development platform as the main control core of device, The system uses a cloud database to receive, store, and judge information. The WiFi is used for wirelessly transmit data. The ESP8266 development platform is expected to be used in the environmental parameter monitoring system to complete offline sensors and equipment control units. The AR technology is used in the navigation information system to provide real-time interactive information. You can use APP on the mobile device to inquire about the growth analysis and related information of various crops in plant factories in real time. The plan uses IoT technology and AR technology that can reduce the manpower requirements and improve the control performance of plant factories.
