2. Building a Greenhouse
based on Arduino Software?
• Greenhouses are controlled-area-environment to
grow plants.
• In order to control the climate factors and
environment autonomously, it is required a
computer/software equipment.
• Arduino boards are able to receive, analyze and
send data in order to maximize plants growth and
health.
