Abstract
This study aimed to create a proto type system which employs an Embedded System using Raspberry Pi for observing the weather changes. This proto type discusses a monitoring system which gives information about environmental conditions on a more local level, the implementation area are categorize by industrial, home and office applications and briefly touches the technological advancements in monitoring the environment and bringing out the new scope in monitoring the current environment problems. The system could monitor surrounding weather conditions including humidity, temperature, soil moisture, rainfall and the light intensity. This prototype and comparative analysis of the environment system was applied in a sample agricultural farm. This prototype system was found to be comfortable for farmers for effectively monitoring the farm anywhere at any time, which results cost reduction, asset saving, and productive management in farming. The prototype system is developed using open source hardware Raspberry PI and WIFI which proves cost effective and having low power consumption. The sensors gather the data of various environmental parameters and provide it to Raspberry PI which act as a base station. The Raspberry PI then transmits the data using WIFI and the processed data will be displayed on laptop through accessing the server that is on the receiver side. © 2006-2017 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).
