Embedded System for Controlling Plant Lighting in Vapourponics Farming
Main Article Content
Abstract
Plants need light to grow. Lighting systems are necessary for plant research. Recent advances in light-emitting diode (LED) technology allow for several plant light response studies. LED benefits include solidity, lifespan, small element volume, radiant flux controllability, and monochromaticity. A lighting system must produce precisely controlled light spectra to trigger a variety of plant responses for plant light response research. Computers and graphical user interface programs may regulate the PFD and mixing ratios of four wavelength-band lights in the plant lighting system. A highly uniform PFD distribution was attained even with an intentionally skewed PFD gradient. This study investigates a plant illumination system with four wavelength-band LEDs for indoor plant growing. LED technology can precisely manage light spectrum and intensity, and the research explores how different light wavelengths affect plant growth and development. The article also discusses LED lighting's energy efficiency and heat reduction benefits. According to studies, a plant illumination system with four wavelength-band LEDs can boost plant growth and yield in indoor gardening and hydroponics. An autonomous plant lighting system with four wavelength-band LEDs can manage light intensity, spectrum, and timing for optimal plant growth and development. Sensors change LED lighting based on plant development stage and ambient light conditions. Choose from four wavelength-band LEDs to get the best light spectrum for your plant. A microprocessor or other control system can vary LED intensity and proportions to control photon flux density and mixing ratio. For different plant growth stages, the autonomous system can imitate natural daylight cycles and give the right spectrum and intensity of light. This can boost plant growth and production while saving energy and heat. Indoor gardening and hydroponics, where natural light is scarce, benefit from an autonomous plant lighting system with four wavelength-band LEDs. This technique can also help grow plants in small spaces or poor environments.
