Descrição
Resumo:A solution is presented in the monitoring of water pH conditions to reduce labor and mortality in shrimp crops in the port of San Felipe B.C. A wireless sensor network based on ZigBee was used to monitor the critical conditions and all the control processes where they were carried out with the help of a series of PIC16F886 microcontrollers including real-time C-code. This system can collect and presenting data in a local graphical user interface (GUI). It also allows the user to obtain updated information of the pH sensor via the web and in an Android-based mobile application, through Internet connectivity or at any time by means of alerts that the user receives to the email. In this way, the system minimizes the negative effects caused by sudden changes in the pH value of water in shrimp, reduces farm labor. Because of that, the proposed system saves the cost of hiring labor and the use of electricity. The design is low cost that will work best for small to medium sized aquaculture operations, since it does not require any modification of the pond at all.
