Abstract. This project is about developing a GSM web centralized remote wireless
automatic controlling and monitoring of Aqua Feeder for nation database on feeding and
growth optimization. GSM fish feeder is functioning in schedule feeding by the automation
of SMS and database retrieval with specific time setting. In this project, GSM Aqua Feeder
is an automatic electrical device that has been designed to provide the pellets at set up time.
The main component in the project is the GSM microcontroller, which is Satel MICRA
Alarm Controller that are capable to supply electricity to the electronic Aqua Feeder when
SMS are sent by the user from a distance. MICRA microcontroller is also having digital
interface which allows programming, setting up with GPRS Soft program that can be
downloaded from Satel website. User’s telephone numbers and command can be set and
stored in the system through the program. Web access database and website controlling are
created based on manual usage requirements, which are basically developed by PHP
programming and control by Wamp server. This machine is developed by the purpose of
hoping to help the fish farmers in daily fish feeding scheduling tasks to improve the fish
quality and agriculture farming.
1. Introduction
1.1 Problem Statement
In the field of agriculture farming, fish farmers are having troublesome in fish feeding schedule tasks. As a
daily task for rearing fishes, it is required to use time and effort to give out fish pallets to the fishes. To solve
the problem, the automatic aqua feeder has come to a solution for supplying fish food for a specific duration
of time consistently. The user may send SMS to command the microcontroller in allowing small voltage to
run the fish feeder with cron programming setting which enables automatic feeding on specific time daily
without manually control.
The procedures of operations of Aqua Feeder are listed as the following statements.
i. Water drop on the surface of the bigger platform and flow through the flat container, giving pressure
on the entire structure to tilt down around 45 degrees.
ii. When the bigger platform is moving downwards, it will lead to the half rotation of the center fish
pallets distributive lift.
iii. The fish pallets will fall off for a specific duration of time that match with the daily feeding amount
and frequency.
3. Methodology
PHP programs:
Connecting database for SMS transaction tracking records
Cron schedule feeding tasks management
There are certain PHP code words that are vital in developing the software program, listed in the
following table.
5. Conclusion
The developed GSM web centralized Aqua Feeder include 4 main parts: Satel MICRA microcontroller,
Wavecom Fastrack GSM modem, website server for end user applications like Microsoft Access Database
and manual control website browser for feeding tasks, also Aqua Feeder mechanical device. The overall
process of automation feeding tasks are done from the PHP Cron codes, then automatically send SMS at
specific schedules, the mechanical Aqua Feeder will dispense fish pallets. For manual controlling, users
may add on feeding frequencies by sending SMS text through phone or remote website browser. Once there
is SMS transactions going through the system, the information messages will be recorded into the database
of Inbox and Outbox. This will help the analysis of feeding frequencies and daily consumption amount of
the rearing fishes. In conclusion, the development device are created based on the requirements of fish
farmers in solving their problems by using green energy to save their time and efforts in rearing fishes. With
the hope of improving aqua agriculture, GSM Aqua Feeder has come to an approach for helping the fish
farmers to rear fishes in a low cost and efficient way.
