Design and Implementation of Intelligent Control System for Egg Incubator Based on IoT Technology

In this paper, the smart egg incubator system is chosen in order to be integrated with the IoT technology. The egg incubator system has two types of sensors: temperature sensor and humidity sensor. These sensors are used to measure the condition of the incubator and send the data to the microcontroller system that is responsible to make the decision to operate the actuators to keep the environment inside incubator within the suitable conditions for eggs. These conditions are changed during incubation period and they depend on the eggs type. The designed incubator also has a servo motor that is used to tilt the egg 45

every 4 hours to avoid the sticking of the embryo to the eggshell. To ensure that these conditions are realized, the microcontroller is programed to work as a fuzzy logic control system for controlling the position of egg, temperature and humidity of the incubator to ensure the best conditions for different eggs type. The status conditions in the egg incubator are appeared on the LCD screen display. The next task is to build IoT system in order to control the egg incubator remotely from anywhere over the world.
