Objectives

This course introduces the student to the computerized Greenhouse , the student explores and implement various topics like:
Mechanical assembly of Greenhouse, lighting system, sensors , actuators, irrigation, windows and solar technology .
The student will explore the science and biologic aspects of growing in greenhouse technology .
The student can control the climate, the irrigation and the solar Energy of the greenhouse by using smart controllers.


Description

The Greenhouse Technology is a project intended to provide students with the science and technology skills required using greenhouse technology .
The course is built for self-studying and experimenting, while the theory is integrated in the experimenting in a very unique way.
The course contains 3 sets of skills development.
1. Design and assembly the greenhouse
2. Design and assembly the electricity and electronics components.
3. Design and assembly new technology components like smart controllers and sensors.

Optional “Introduction to Computerized Control” by implementing a computerized home
No previous scientific or technological knowledge is required, and the system is eminently suitable for students from primary , junior high school level and upwards.

Experiments

This system enables the student to perform several scintific and application experiments and covers the following topics:

Explore and operating the temperature sensor.
Explore and operating the wet sensor.
Explore and operating the Switches.
Conditions and decisions.
Timers and counters.
Automatic light control.
Operating the greenhouse/
Exploring and controlling irrigation technology.
Exploring end operating solar energy.
Control growing technology.
Explore the relation of temperature on the growing
Computerized technology .
Introduction to Computerized control systems.
