Abstract
This paper presents an IoT-based low-cost aquaculture system for automatic monitoring of fish firms to increase the production of fishes in order to meet the protein demand. A microcontroller is employed in measuring several essential parameters of the water like pH, temperature, water level, oil layer, and to monitor the fish behavior to understand their hunger level that is directly affect in the growth of firm fishes. A mobile application and an interactive Web interface are designed to notify the measured parameters value and necessary recommendation. Bluetooth and ESP8266 Wi-Fi module are integrated with the system to deliver the data to the mobile app and Web interface. In case of any abnormality, the system informs the concerned authority to take the immediate steps. In addition, the forecasting of the several water parameters in the following day to take an earlier preventive action makes the proposed framework more exceptional. Therefore, the system will assist the fish farmer to enhance the production of quality fishes, which may help to meet the protein challenges for the large population.
