Device: Overview



Device System

Have you ever imagined automatic agriculture: AI will do all kinds of chores in the farmland, such as watering, fertilization and disease control. As for human beings, we can do other works without caring anything in farmland, and just need to check some parameters of environment from our phones occasionally, to see if the crops grow healthily and strongly. This year, we made a giant leap in the realization of this concept.

We integrated Internet of Things (IOT), sensors, actuators and big data processing technique to construct a complete automatic agriculture system. It can monitor the environment parameters and crops’ status of health in real time. Meanwhile, it can also release signaling molecules or emit medium waves to control our endophyte---T.atrovide, to achieve a series of functions. For example, pathogen controlling. In short, our system use device to build a bridge between human and plants via T.atrovide.

Fig.1 An overview of our device system

Our device consists of main device (environment parameter monitoring device) and slave units (plants'status of health monitoring device and medium wave emission device). Considering the fact that conditions differ in different area of farmland, we can put several slave units at a certain distance in the farmland while main device needs only one. The slave units can transform information to main device through 2.4G data transmission module.

Main device is environment parameter monitoring device, which can measure relative parameter such as temperature, humidity, the illumination time, rainfall, TVOC, etc. The result can be shown in the built-in screen and, in the meanwhile, be transformed to PC through 2.4G data transmission module in real time. What’s more, main device can release inducer, DAPG, and water the plants according to soil moisture content.

What if there is no WiFi in farmland? Don’t worry! The transmission distance of 2.4G data transmission module in our device is farther than 2.5km in theory. Therefore, you can monitor the plants’ status of health without going outside.

Main System

Slave units consist of plants' status of health monitoring device, which is formed by several electric noses. It can monitor the plants' status of health in real time.

Know more about our device and result. What's more, we take advantage of several methods to enhance the stability of our system in real condition.

Slave System

We also designed a set of middle wave emission device, which can emit high-frequency radio wave to activate the ferrtin-TRPV pathway of our engineered T.atroviride, so that we regulate the expression of downstream gene at a long distance and make it have influence on growth of plants. More important, it can be applied in a large area of farmland together with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).

Middle Wave Emission Device

We also constructed a webapp, to which all data will be uploaded, so that you are able to check the corresponding parameter in mobile device.

Fig.5 A screenshot of our webapp

Every components coupled with each other in this system. And total cost of our system is less than $400 ( not including UAV). In this way, we can achieve a system of automatic agriculture.
