Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 生物產業機電工程學研究所 === 95 === Field server (FS), consists of PICNIC (Programmable Interface Controller and Network Interface Card), sensors, wireless AP (Access Point) and IP camera, was developed. Two applications systems were introduced to demonstrate the capabilities of FS.
System of FS consists of hardware and software. Sensors such as soil moisture sensor, temperature and humidity sensors, water level sensor and IP camera and actuators such as relay and solid state relay were used to control the active/enactive of lamps, alarm, fans, motors and foggers, etc. manually or automatically based on predefined controlled algorithm. Related software was developed based on VB.Net platform and data measured of all sensors can be stored into a database and retrieved afterward.
Two application systems were developed including exhibition stand for ornamental pot plants with Internet wise remote monitoring and control functions and controlled environmental growth chamber with Internet wise remote and local control capabilities on lamps. Thanks to the advanced of IT technologies, both systems introduced make the term ‘remote control’ with new meanings. Although, both examples demoed were focusing on Bio-industrial applications, we are quite sure that such system can find vast applications in many other fields.
