초록

전 세계적으로 농업분야가 많이 줄어들고 있는 반면에, IT농업과 미래 먹거리에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, ICT 기반 미래 농업 활성화를 위해 다양한 연구가 진행 중에 있다. 본 논문에서는 양액재배를 위해 온습도, pH(hydrogen ion), EC(Electric Conductivity) 등 생육환경을 모니터링 하는 동시에 최적의 환경을 유지하도록 LED, 쿨링팬 제어가 가능한 시스템을 제안한다. 생육환경 모니터링 및 제어를 위해 아두이노(Arduino) 하드웨어와 자바(Java) 소프트웨어를 이용하였으며, Wi-Fi 공유기를 활용해 소켓통신을 하고 데이터베이스 및 웹서버 인터페이스를 통해 여러 환경에서 식물을 쉽게 관리할 수 있다. 더욱이, 장소 및 시간에 구애 받지 않고 LED를 활용한 재배로 병해충이 생기지 않는 환경에서 지속적인 관리가 가능하여 단순 양액재배보다 빠르게 재배할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 더 나아가, ICT 미래 농업 활성화에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

According to global trend, despite the overall scale of agricultural industry has been downsized, agriculture accommodating cutting-edge ICT technologies has been proliferated, and various timely-issued relevant researches have been on progress to deploy the future food cultivation. In this paper, we propose an effective nutrient management system with web-based monitoring with functionality of controlling temperature, humidity, pH (hydrogen ion), EC (Electric Conductivity), LED and cooling fan to maintain the hydroponic nurturing environment being optimal. In this paper, in order the arduino hardware and java software are employed to control the nurturing environment automatically in optimal fashion. In proposed system, due to the usage of WiFi router with the socket communication and DB-assisted Web server with proper interfaces, it allows to facilitate the management to keep monitoring and controling overall hydroponic nurturing environment. Since the proposed Web-based management system provides the superior reliability, the short nurturing period and the robustness to the pest by controlling LED emitting color rather than conventional system, so it can be applied and appropriate for in-house vegetable factory overcoming limitation of time and location.
