Mobile Surveillance Device In Agriculture Monitoring System

Temperature and humidity monitoring are a crucial part in controlling the quality and growth of crops in agriculture. Conventional method uses a digital sensor that detects environment temperature and humidity and these data will be sends to a local PC to be decoded and analyzed through cabling. Thus requires user to be constantly in front of the PC result in space limitation. The aim of this project is to design a mobile surveillance device where user can monitor the temperature and humidity through Personal Digital Assistant, PDA or cellular phone. The data will constantly uploaded to e-mail server and the user can retrieve the data and display on cellular phone or PDA through GPRS, EDGE, 3G or WIFI. A graphical user interface is design using Visual Studio 2008 to decode and analyze the data received. This project is able to overcome conventional monitoring which consume more cost and space due to intensive labour and wiring. The result is a wireless monitoring system that can help user monitor status in agriculture without long distance limitation.
