Wireless sensor network for agricultural environment using raspberry pi based sensor nodes

Wireless sensor network is widely used in agricultural domain for efficient farming management. The application of the network system for agricultural environment monitoring was successfully developed in this research. Different sensors were integrated for acquiring data of three essential environment parameters inside the Lettuce (Lactuca Sativa) growth chambers; the light, temperature and humidity. The used of Raspberry Pi as the main component in designing the sensor nodes gives a perfect platform for reliable but low-cost wireless sensor network monitoring system.
