Smart Greenhouse Design Workshop
Training
Design a smart greenhouse from equipment selection to control planning, auto-condition setup, and Cloud integration.
Objectives
Participants will understand microclimate control principles in greenhouses, select appropriate sensors and equipment, plan control logic for water and fertilizer systems, and install hardware connected to Cloud for remote monitoring and control.
