Desarrollo de un prototipo para la automatización de un sistema de riego de agua y control remoto mediante la plataforma Zolertia RE-Mote

Abstract

The Internet of Things is the current trend that allows real-world objects to connect to the Internet, to interact with each other and with people. One of the applications that can be generated with the Internet of Things is the optimization of processes in the agricultural sector, helping to the farmer to have efficiency in the execution of this processes. For that reason, the present project is oriented to the development of an automated irrigation system and remote control using the Internet of Things approach. The present work consists of four chapters, of which, the first one describes several concepts and protocols that are used for the development of IoT applications; besides the characteristics of the devices that are used for the implementation of the project. The second chapter presents the software design of the project that consisting of the mobile application and the communication between the network of nodes and the mobile application. The third chapter consists of the implementation of both the hardware and software that are part of the prototype, and the performance test that are part of a later analysis. The last chapter presents the conclusions and recommendations resulting from the complete development of the project.
