  1. Autonomous Hydroponic Garden Group JibJab: Jamie Collier, BikeshDahal, Jessica Cohen, Ben Leblanc 11.19.2013

  2. Project Description • Household autonomous garden • Hydroponic system to maintain specific plants • Tomatoes • Basil • Cilantro • Minimal user interaction (only maintain reservoir level) • Maximize health of plant and rate of growth • Key components: • Temperature • pH • Oxygen content • Light • Electrical Conductivity • Constraints • Size • User Interface • Cost

  3. CAD Design – Overview Lighting Plant Cage Nutrient Funnel Electronics Box Top Reservoir Probes: pH, EC, Temperature Water Pump Bottom Reservoir Air Stone Valve Units: inches 8” wide

  4. Direction of Flow

  5. Purchased Parts Air Stone Mesh Net Submersible Pump Sensors

  6. Levels of Success • Level 1: Monitortemperature and control light with display • Level 2: MonitorpH and electrical conductivity • Level 3: Control temperature • Level 4:Control pH and electrical conductivity • Level 5: IOS application with user interface

  7. Associated Risks Electrical Failure Plant dies Lower Cost Materials Sensor Corrosion (predicted life) • Waterproofing system • Sealants and Glues • Rabbet Joints • Control systems • Slow enough settling time • Low overshoot • Feasible ranges for each component
