Design and Implementation of a Smart Seawater Aquarium System Based on Artificial Intelligence of Things Technology

In recent years, single societies and aging societies around the worldwide increasingly seen the emerging problem of loneliness and the growing need for companionship. To satisfy the need, the population of pet keepers is growing, and the proportion of households with pets is increasing. It is normal to have pets at home. Pet fish are kept not only for companionship but also to relieve the stress accumulated throughout the day, and they can also improve the quality of life and health of older individuals. Having a pet can help reduce anxiety and increase food intake in people with medical conditions. This article proposes a smart seawater aquarium system based on the artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) technology to lower the knowledge threshold for keeping seahorses or other marine fish as pets. The proposed system provides seawater fish owners with safe and convenient feeding methods and more pet-friendly and user-friendly choices of interactive pet care and improves the comfort and survival rate of marine life in seawater aquariums. This smart seawater aquarium system can automatically or manually adjust water quality, water temperature, and oxygen content in water, change the water, feed fish, and monitor underwater fish in real time. It solves the problem of neglecting pet fish and the difficulty of maintaining seawater aquariums. Moreover, the proposed system incorporates a cloud-based information system and a web-based platform for data transmission and interface control, and it has achieved the purposes of remote and local monitoring of the aquarium.
