PIPE-BASED HYDROPONIC FARM SYSTEM WITH INTERNET CONTROL - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240260525 titled 'PIPE-BASED HYDROPONIC FARM SYSTEM WITH INTERNET CONTROL
The abstract describes an Internet of Things (IoT) based hydroponic farm system that includes a cloud server, multiple hydroponic farms, and user computing stations. The system utilizes real-time publish-subscribe protocols for wireless communication of hydroponic farm information.
- Cloud server with data distribution service domain
- Hydroponic farms divided into plant growing zones
- Zone controllers for each plant growing zone
- Farm controllers assigned to each hydroponic farm
- User computing stations subscribed to data distribution service middleware
- Communication with zone controllers, farm controllers, process controller, production planning controller, and enterprise resource planning controller
Potential Applications: - Agriculture industry for efficient plant growth - Research institutions for studying plant growth in controlled environments - Educational institutions for teaching hydroponic farming techniques
Problems Solved: - Monitoring and controlling plant growth in hydroponic systems - Efficient data distribution and communication within the system - Integration of IoT technology in agriculture
Benefits: - Increased crop yield and quality - Real-time monitoring and control of plant growth - Enhanced efficiency and productivity in hydroponic farming
Commercial Applications: Title: "IoT Hydroponic Farming System for Enhanced Crop Yield" This technology can be used in commercial hydroponic farms, research facilities, and educational institutions to optimize plant growth and increase productivity.
Prior Art: Prior research on IoT applications in agriculture and hydroponic farming systems can provide insights into similar technologies and advancements in the field.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest developments in IoT technology for agriculture, hydroponic farming systems, and data distribution services to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the system.
Questions about IoT Hydroponic Farming System: 1. How does the real-time publish-subscribe protocol improve communication in the hydroponic farm system? 2. What are the key differences between traditional farming methods and hydroponic farming using IoT technology?
Original Abstract Submitted
an internet of things (iot) based hydroponic farm system is described. the hydroponic farm system includes a cloud server, a plurality of hydroponic farms, and a plurality of user computing stations. the cloud server includes a data distribution service domain that includes data distribution service middleware configured to use a real-time publish-subscribe protocol to wirelessly communicate hydroponic farm information. each of the hydroponic farms is divided into a plurality of hydroponic plant growing zones that are configured to grow at least one species of plant. each hydroponic plant growing zone includes a zone controller. a farm controller is assigned to each of the hydroponic farms. the plurality of user computing stations are subscribed to the data distribution service middleware and are configured to communicate, through the data distribution service domain, with the zone controller, the farm controller, a process controller, a production planning controller, and an enterprise resource planning controller.
