Projets-2016-2017-Serres connectées
Project presentation
The project subject : Serres connectées.
The project consist of upgrading a classic greenhouse to retrieve live information about its climate. The farm exploitation is located in Saint-Cassien (38500), in the French Alps.
Data to retrieve :
- Air temperature
- Air moisture
- Soil moisture
Control of these parameters are essentials to avoid disease, enhance the growth of the plantations and limit water consumption.
Two main constrains :
- No power in the zone
- Sensors needs to be moveable to let vehicles move along the greenhouse
Team
- Supervisor: Nicolas Palix and Vincent Hibon
- Members: Antoine Boisadam, Oriane Dalle
- Department: RICM 4, Polytech Grenoble
