What
is an Arduino?
Arduino is an
open-source computer hardware and Software Company that designs and
manufactures microcontroller-based kits for building digital devices and
interactive objects that can sense and control objects in the physical world.
What
language does Arduino use?
The Arduino language
is merely a set of C/C++ functions that can be called from your code.
Your sketch undergoes minor changes (e.g. automatic generation of function
prototypes) and then is passed directly to a C/C++ compiler.
What
is a voltage divider?
A voltage divider is a simple circuit which turns a
large voltage into a smaller one. Using just two
series resistors and an input voltage, we can create an output voltage that is a fraction of the input.
How
is our project is better than what is out there?
It is cheaper, modular and more customizable.
Preexisting projects similar to greenhouse
environment controls include thermostats, humidistats, lighting controls, and
pump start controls that can cost thousands of dollars.
What
was the biggest challenge during the project?
Coding was the biggest challenge, and was very time
consuming.
