Cyberponics Proposal
Cyberponics Proposal
Cyberponics Proposal
E.g. - Adjust the pH level of the nutrient solution, spray the roots at
regular intervals, regulate the temperature by using fan and the
composition of the air by pumping gas in and out, light up LEDs when
the light intensity falls below in the greenhouse
Our Cyberponics System will include…
The Root Chamber
(With temperature, humidity, air pressure, air composition, nutrient
composition, water level monitors and regulators)
The Shoot Chamber
(With temperature, humidity, air pressure monitors and regulators)
Web page and Mobile app interface
Background and History
In 1978, Isaac Nir described an aeroponic system that automated the
spraying of mist at the root of the plants and was one of the very
firsts of its kind
In 1997, Richard Stoner II founded AgriHouse, an agri-biology
company, which along with research inputs from NASA produced the
Genesis Series Aeroponic System
Aeroponic Growing System which was designed for potato production
by Irman Idris and Muhammad Ikshan Sani in 2012.
An aeroponic system built by J.L.Reyes et al. was very similar to
project XGEN in a way that it included a greenhouse system to main
the atmosphere of the shoot system
An aeroponic system developed by Jing Liu and Yunwei Zhang in 2013
was among the first systems to include a temperature regulator.
An aeroponic system that could be used in the space was built by V.
Arenella et al. in 2016
Muhammad Ikshan Sani et al. developed a similar system in 2016 that
allowed web-based monitoring, but a complete regulatory system was
absent.
How we differ from others?
By implementing fully automated-regular system
1. A regulatory system to regulate the pH and EC level of the nutrient
solution
2. Temperature regulation
3. Humidity regulation
4. Regulation of air pressure
5. A feedback mechanism to ensure the spraying system is not
malfunctioning
6. Carbon dioxide and oxygen regulation
7. A mechanism by which the growth of the plant can be monitored
8. Mold growth detection
