Design of Intelligent Measure and Control Software of Plant Growth Cabinet Based on Android System

Abstract:

Plant growth cabinet, as a kind of green, environmental, efficient, energy-efficient, closed plant growth environment, can provide the temperature, humidity and others that are required in the process of plant growth and development. We design an intelligent measure and control software based on Android system to achieve information collection and display of the environmental data in the cabinet and the plants’ morphological data. It also could remotely monitor the plant growth process in real time and do the intelligent regulation of the control node. In order to collect and send environmental data and video in real time that don’t affect the operation of the software interface, Android background Service technology has been adopted. The communication of Activity and Service that is realized by BroadcastReceiver, has realized the run of users operation interface and background program in the same time, improve the interactivity and real time of the software. The experimental results show that the software has realized the local and remote intelligent measure and control for the plant growth cabinet.
