Abstract |
The health monitoring of the crop is very important for high yield of grown crop, the Internet of Things based crop health monitoring system consists the components namely camera module, microcontroller unit, SD card, Wi-Fi module in physical part and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index algorithm based OpenCV application in cyber part hence the crop health monitoring system is a cyber- physical system or Internet of things enabled system. The physical part will be implemented on 6 to 10 ft. above than the ground, vertically downward positioned and it will be static, the user switch will be connected to the microcontroller through General Purpose Input Output, the camera will be connected to the microcontroller unit through Serial Peripheral Interface, the SD card will be connected to the microcontroller unit through SDIO protocol, the Wi-Fi module will be connected to the microcontroller unit through UART and the Python scripted OpenCV application will be implemented at the cloud to calculated the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. The camera module, Near Infrared filter based camera and Visible filter based camera will capture the image and eventually it will be transferred to the SD card by microcontroller unit, when the internet connectivity will be available it will send the data on cloud, The Python Scripted OpenCV application will calculate the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and will provide the information of health of crop of the particular farm. The Internet of things based crop health monitoring system will be very useful as agriculture informatics to take right decisions to increase the yield of the grown crop. |
