1 00:00:00,690 --> 00:00:03,320 Congratulations, you are watching this lecture. 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,860 So I suspect you have completed the project and you are wondering what's next. 3 00:00:08,310 --> 00:00:10,950 That's exactly what I thought when I completed this project. 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,140 So I have a few ideas to suggest. 5 00:00:14,550 --> 00:00:19,250 How about getting your project off the breadboard and on a beautiful PCB? 6 00:00:20,100 --> 00:00:25,200 This will free up your Bridport for other projects and make a terrorism controller easy to move to a 7 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:26,240 dedicated sport. 8 00:00:26,730 --> 00:00:31,860 It will also make it more reliable as there won't be any jumper wires to become loose or components 9 00:00:31,860 --> 00:00:32,640 to fall off. 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:39,360 Another benefit of the PC is that you can now design an enclosure to protect it from water and soil 11 00:00:39,660 --> 00:00:42,120 and to help finish and polish the project. 12 00:00:42,810 --> 00:00:46,380 And also working on an enclosure right now and update the community. 13 00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:52,710 Once it's ready, it can download the Gerba files or the Complete Kickout Project by clicking on the 14 00:00:52,710 --> 00:00:54,150 link in this lecture. 15 00:00:56,110 --> 00:00:58,270 Mixed, you can add or census. 16 00:00:59,510 --> 00:01:07,370 In this slide, I list a few obvious ideas, things like soil temperature sensors, the radiation sensor 17 00:01:07,370 --> 00:01:10,130 and a photoresistor are all straightforward. 18 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:17,060 If you are using a large open container as the water reservoir, it can consider using an ultrasonic 19 00:01:17,060 --> 00:01:21,740 sensor as a way to measure the volume of the water held within the container. 20 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:28,520 This kind of sensor will not work well enough for closed containers, and that's why I didn't implement 21 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:29,540 it in this project. 22 00:01:31,270 --> 00:01:36,500 How about adding a specialized growth light to help your plant grow faster? 23 00:01:37,450 --> 00:01:43,390 You can combine this with a light sensor and modify the note read flow so that the amount of light that 24 00:01:43,390 --> 00:01:49,540 the plant gets is measured and controlled to optimize growth without stressing the plant. 25 00:01:51,270 --> 00:01:57,540 There are many other cloud based Iot services that you can consider you've already implemented the function 26 00:01:57,540 --> 00:02:03,420 based on if this and that, but you can also consider services such as Tullio for any kind of functionality 27 00:02:03,420 --> 00:02:04,710 that involves phones. 28 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,790 And DeWit don't io so that your terrarium can tweet. 29 00:02:10,790 --> 00:02:17,750 Another interesting possibility is this one here, if you have completed my other course titled Raspberry 30 00:02:17,750 --> 00:02:23,570 Pi, make a workbench automation computer, then you probably already have a Raspberry Pi connected 31 00:02:23,570 --> 00:02:25,880 to a TFT touch screen. 32 00:02:26,150 --> 00:02:31,100 And you know how to use Python to implement an application with a graphical user interface. 33 00:02:31,970 --> 00:02:37,280 It can take your workbench automation computer a step further and interface it with your notepad flow 34 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,070 via the entity Breuker. 35 00:02:40,010 --> 00:02:46,160 Remember that the Broca is already receiving information about the state of the pump and the sensors. 36 00:02:46,580 --> 00:02:52,430 It can simply subscribe your workbench automation computer python script to the existing topics and 37 00:02:52,430 --> 00:02:56,120 display all this information in its graphical user interface. 38 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:02,570 Although you already have the note read dashboard, the Python application gives you an alternative 39 00:03:02,570 --> 00:03:07,310 way to control your terrarium and get status information in one glance. 40 00:03:09,180 --> 00:03:13,780 Another thing is a option to dig into hydroponics and are openings. 41 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:22,620 Perhaps you are interested in the science and you want to look further into how to practice modern agriculture. 42 00:03:22,620 --> 00:03:29,250 In those ways, I find methods like hydroponics and our opponents very interesting for geeks like me 43 00:03:29,490 --> 00:03:36,960 because they present an excellent application of technology in a real human problem that is food production. 44 00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:43,860 Consider global challenges in the context of energy, global warming, waste management and overpopulation. 45 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,590 Modern agricultural science gives us many of the tools we need to rise to these challenges. 46 00:03:50,550 --> 00:03:56,490 You can learn from the science and use your knowledge of engineering to create efficient plant incubating 47 00:03:56,490 --> 00:03:58,050 and growing devices. 48 00:04:00,550 --> 00:04:07,090 I hope that these few ideas have sparked your imagination, and I remind you that you are always welcome 49 00:04:07,090 --> 00:04:10,480 to discuss your ideas and potential next steps in the course of discussion. 50 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,160 Space on the exploration community. 51 00:04:13,990 --> 00:04:16,540 For now, farewell and happy making.
