Information about the project
Project title *
Smart Greenhouses with use of Machine Learning, Digital Object Architecture, and IoTs
Title acronym
Smart Greenhouses
Description *
Greenhouses exist all over the world. In some parts of the world, countries opt to use IoTs to smartly manage greenhouses. Greenhouses may work under same conditions given types of crops that grow in them. These conditions are captured and changed by these IoTs given the required conditions under which a given crop is to be grown. For a given crop, some greenhouses may offer better conditions than others, but lack of information sharing is missed for poorly performing greenhouses to offer better conditions. This is due to the fact that greenhouses are isolated. Here comes the question on how knowledge can be smartly be shared between greenhouses spread all over the world or within a country or a region to make sure that appropriate conditions for a given crop are created. For that reason, we propose a solution that combines IoT, Digital Object Architecture and Machine Learning to develop Intelligent greenhouses. The DOA offer inter-connectivity between IoT under different platforms, whereas AI offer Machine Learning models trained based on data gathered from different IoTs of greenhouses. The result are IoTs that create conditions based on predictions obtained from Machine Learning trained models.
