Abstract

Inverter app is a software tool for creating applications for Android smartphones and tablets. The Google company cooperate with MIT are developing them by working through    a web browser and testing with a mobile phone connected to the computer system. The hardware part is Arduino, AVR family microcontroller board with open-source development is to disclose both hardware and software information. To improve the operation of the smart farm system with the MIT App Inverter. We are designed based on controlling the system using the command and monitoring of all hardware over the Internet. For this smart mushroom farming project, the sequence of operations is commanded and monitored using an Android system on a mobile phone, all linked through a ThingSpeak web browser and receive-send information to the hardware, which includes temperature and humidity sensor 4 position works combine with Arduino Uno R3 WIFI to turn on-off the water pump and the solenoid valve set. It can control the amount of flow and the flow path in 4 directions by controlling the amount and direction of the water droplets in all 4 directions based on the data from the temperature and humidity measurement kits compared to the reference values of the temperature and humidity suitable for each mushroom type inside the house. The example case for this project is Oyster mushrooms grow well in climates with temperatures between 24-33 degrees Celsius and 70-80 per cent relative humidity, and oyster mushrooms thrive in climates with temperatures between 25-35 degrees Celsius and 70-90 per cent relative humidity.
