Abstract

In today's society, keeping our gardens attractive is complex, especially if you need more time to care for them. This can cause the plant to wilt if it is not watered occasionally to keep the soil moist. In summer, this problem tends to get worse because the temperature tends to rise and reach high degrees. The objective is to design an automatic and manual irrigation system with a humidity detector through hardware programming and free software to solve this. The necessary components will be identified and selected, humidity thresholds will be established, and the adoption of technologies such as internet of things (IoT), Arduino, and humidity sensors will be promoted to solve the problem in automated irrigation systems. The technical specifications of the components are described, and the circuit design is presented. A programming algorithm will be developed to control the frequency and duration of irrigation, as well as the state of the water pump. Implementing the automated system will allow precise water supply control, contributing to the healthy growth of plants and crops in green areas.

Abstract

Natural gas is widely used in many homes for cooking, but a lack of gas leak detection has led to large fires and accidents. This article presents the design and implementation of a natural gas detection and extraction system for domestic kitchens in Lima, Peru. The ESP32 microcontroller allowed remote circuit control, resulting in a more convenient setup than the Arduino UNO microcontroller. After calibration of the sensors and their corresponding programming, three actions were established in response to different gas levels: alarm activation, space ventilation and gas extraction, and thermal shutdown. Strategic sensor placement and improved physical presentation of the system were performed to ensure accurate readings and effective deployment. The results demonstrate the proper functioning of the circuit and its ability to prevent accidents related to gas leaks. The designed system offers the advantage of remote monitoring, providing access to the user from any location. In conclusion, this project offers a comprehensive solution to prevent accidents caused by gas leaks in home kitchens. With satisfactory results in terms of operation and rapid response, the project demonstrates its effectiveness in accident prevention. This design offers a practical and accessible solution, improving security and bringing peace of mind to homes.

Abstract

In the agricultural sector, monitoring environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure is crucial for efficient and sustainable agriculture. However, conventional monitoring systems are expensive and need more autonomy, making their implementation difficult in small- and medium-scale agricultural operations. This study presents the design, implementation, and evaluation Internet of things (IoT)-based autonomous for watch remote critical climate variables in the Carabayllo region, Peru. The system uses a data acquisition, processing, and transmission architecture based on the ESP32 microcontroller, DHT22 sensors for measure climatic aspects, BMP180 for detection barometric, and the ThingSpeak cloud platform for data storage and visualization. Results show that the proposed system achieves accuracy comparable to commercial weather stations, making it accessible to small farmers. The implementation demonstrated the system’s ability to detect feasible local microclimates to monitor and predict weather patterns for proper crop growth. This approach enables farmers to monitor conditions in real time, receive early alerts on adverse weather events, and optimize agricultural practices such as irrigation and fertilization. The study concludes that the proposed IoT weather station represents a viable and cost-effective solution to improve agricultural decision-making in developing regions, potentially contributing to increasing crops.

Abstract

In many regions of the world, water used in agriculture becomes a scarce and costly resource over time. It is necessary to make efficient use of this vital resource. For this reason, we opted for an innovative project that can be of great use for agriculture, incorporating information and communication technologies such as the internet of things (IoT), databases, and smartphone applications. The research proposes an IoT system to control and monitor crops in a specific area based on the ESP32 microcontroller, using the DHT11 sensor to collect temperature and relative humidity data. The sensors send the information to the central node for the wireless communication part. The central node activates the actuators to control and store the information in a database for corresponding monitoring. The mobile application displays the results from the database and causes them to be turned on and off manually. The system was implemented for home plant cultivation but can be used for other types of cultivation due to its flexibility.

Abstract

Efficient handling of heavy loads represents a constant challenge for businesses, which traditionally rely on significant numbers of staff, involving considerable financial costs and occupational health risks exacerbated by the need for specialized infrastructure. Despite technological limitations and structural deficiencies, this solution has prevailed in practice. However, engineering has responded with innovations aimed at optimizing these processes. In this context, the study proposes to adopt an approach based on implementing a robotic arm supported by technologies such as Arduino, Bluetooth devices, servo motors, and remote-control software developed in App Inventor. This approach promises not only the reduction of labor costs and the improvement of job security but also a positive impact in social and economic terms. A preliminary prototype is presented that validates the basic functionality of the proposed robotic arm. This study presents a technically and economically viable alternative for managing heavy loads in enterprise environments, reducing dependence on a large workforce, and improving operational efficiency.
