In today’s digital era, many people use technology to solve their daily problems
or activity. Agricultural technology is one of the technologies that always growing
or developing in terms of creating ideal ways and conditions for a crop. It seems
familiar to see people on the city or urban areas farming in their house, but because
usually they work from morning until down , they can’t control their plants properly.
The presence of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has become a major break
through for societal issues. IoT can simplify people in controlling and monitoring
their crops from anywhere and anytime with remote. Website creation and plant
growth with classification models will be a solution in order to produce plants with
well maintained growth. The tool called greenbox which can contain several plants
that we can monitor and control their growth. The data that will be displayed on the
website is the data taken by the sensor on the greenbox device which is stored in the
firebase database, then the user will carry out commands according to the database.
Sensors are used to determine the value of plant growth parameters.
Based on the existence of sensors that are forwarded to the website and then
processed to determine the parameters with classification threshold of plant needs
to grow optimally, it will help workers in urban areas to control and monitor their
plants from anywhere using the internet. The expectation of this research is that the
output of the system built can be a solution to problems that exist in the community
so that the prototypes that are built can be perfected and marketed to the public.
