Chocadeira automatizada utilizando Arduino com monitoramento remoto

Abstract

Hatching eggs on a large scale is a major problem for the chicken producers. The incubation process through the natural process physically limits the production, and does not allow the producer to manage the critical parameters to ensure the success of the reproduction. This project proposes the development of a simple and low cost smart egg incubator system, which through automatized processes will reduce the risk of failure and will improve the production and success rate of the entire process of hatching chicken eggs. The control system is based on the Arduino platform, which is programmed to control the temperature and humidity of the egg hatcher, and automatically rotate the eggs. Additionally, with the implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) concept on the project, it’s possible to help the producers remote monitor the egg incubator.
