Design and implimentation of pig farm monitoring system for ubiquitous agriculture

The ubiquitous pig farm monitoring system is designed so that it can be applied to modern agriculture, which is becoming bigger and more advanced. In the immediate previous research, a large scale ubiquitous pig farm monitoring system was designed and it was applied to actual pig farms. It was possible to realize the system, where the raising efficiency of pig was maximized by installing the temperature/humidity sensors and video camera, transmitting the measured information to caretaker in real time. When the measured environmental information values detected by the sensor would get out of optimum raising environment of pigs, the system transmitted the content to the caretaker. Simultaneously, the environment control facilities such as humidifier, air conditioner and window opener/closer were activated in order to maintain the environmental information at uniform and pleasant values.
