Title

A NOVAL IMPROVED IRRIGATION SYSTEM USING IMAGE PROCESSING AND WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY

Authors

Abstract

A novel irrigation system was implemented to use in agricultural crops. This system uses a raspberry pi with webcam to capture and process digital pictures of the soil close to the root zone of the plant, and estimates optically the relative wet soil(RWS) percentage. The entire system is confined in a chamber and placed it at the root level of the plant under controlled illumination. An algorithm was developed in Python OpenCV to operate directly the computing and communication components such as webcam and ZegBee network. The algorithm runs continuously and activate the all components with pre-defined parameters. Then, the webcam takes an image of the soil through associate window and an RGB to grey conversion is achieved to estimate the quantitative ratio between wet and dry area of the image. After the serial communication is enabled, this ratio is transmitted using Zegbee wireless device to gateway unit. Gateway unit consists of Arduino microcontroller with Zegbee. Arduino processes received information and control the water pump. The system is powered by using rechargeable batteries and charged by using solar panel. The experimental results shows that by the usage of this automatic irrigation system we reduce water consumption and increase yield.
