  1. Team 22Aeroponic Growth Chamber • Team: • Daniel Wright – CprE/EE • Chris Reeve – CprE • Mohammed Rahim – EE • Zach Davis – CprE • Advisor/Client: • Professor Tim Bigelow

  2. Project Goal & Concept Scetch A simple and affordable aeroponic plant growth chamber to study the effect of sound on plant healing and growth.

  3. System Decomposition • Microcontroller • Pump • Light • Sound • Heating Coil • Depth Gauge • Temperature • CO2 • Atmospheric Pressure • Python server application • Communicates between user interface and microcontroller • Handles settings and periodic tasks • User Interface • Web application to view data and change chamber settings • Server application to change settings

  4. Microcontroller State Diagram

  5. Microcontroller Testing

  6. Central Server Program

  7. Central Server Program Testing • Build and test individual modules • Serial communication • Socket server • Task scheduler • Write ‘dummy’ front-end to test with • Write ‘dummy’ program to run on microcontroller

  8. Web UI Specifications • Web app using ASP.NET AJAX and C# in VS 2010 • Master page will handle common items • Home/Welcome page as index • Data page for graphical presentation of gathered data • Alerts page to notify users of problems • Settings page with controls to view and set any modifiable chamber settings • Administrator page for user account operations and for the viewing of past settings changes

  9. Server UI Specifications • Windows Forms app using C# in VS 2010 • Very minimal and simplistic • Successful login shows Settings view where any modifiable chamber settings can be viewed and changed • Users view to allow administrator to view, add, modify, and remove user accounts • Users view can be seen by administrator accounts only

  10. User Interface Testing • Web interface is very easy and straightforward to test. Just need to make sure pages and controls look and function like they are supposed to. • A dummy database will be made so that the tester can see exactly what the web app is doing. • A dummy Python app will be made to print out the commands that it gets from either of the UI’s to make sure it is getting what we expect it to.

  11. Current Status • Box is built and nearly completely assembled • Irrigation system is in progress • Most parts have been ordered • Need to design sound generation system • Software specs are well laid out and ready to begin design and programming
