Agrothon Client

A Client for Agrothon Running in Raspberry Pi

Installation

• First Install the dependencies

  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install python3-opencv python3-rpi.gpio
  

• from Pypi

  pip3 install AgroClient
  

• From git

  pip3 install -U git+https://github.com/viswanathbalusu/Agrothon-Client
  

• Using Docker

  • First install docker

    curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sudo sh
    sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER}
    

  • Get the docker-compose.yml and agrothonclient.env to a local directory

    wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/viswanathbalusu/Agrothon-Client/main/docker-compose.yml
    wget -q https://raw.githubusercontent.com/viswanathbalusu/Agrothon-Client/main/agroclient-sample.env -O agroclient.env
    

  • Edit the Variables in agroclient.env and start docker container

    pip3 -q install docker-compose
    docker-compose up -d
    

  • Docker method only works on linux/arm/v7, linux/arm64/v8, linux/amd64 (CPU) architecture

Usage

usage: AgroClient [-h] -y HOSTNAME -a APIKEY [-u USB] [-p1 PIR1] [-p2 PIR2]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help, show this help message and exit
  -y, --hostname HOSTNAME, API Server host name
  -a, --apikey APIKEY, API Key of host
  -u, --usb USB, USB Port of Arduino
  -p1, --pir1 PIR1, GPIO Pin of PIR1
  -p2, --pir2 PIR2, GPIO Pin of PIR2
  -p3, --pir3 PIR3, GPIO Pin of PIR3
  -p4, --pir4 PIR4, GPIO Pin of PIR4
  -br, --baudrate BAUDRATE, Baud rate of USB Port to read sensor data
  -r, --relay RELAY, Relay Signalling GPIO pin

Circuit Diagram

Hardware

Pin Configuration (Default)

• Raspberry Pi

  GPIO	Device	Use	Mode
  12	Relay	To Switch on/off Relay	OUT
  25	PIR1	Motion Detection	IN
  8	PIR2	Motion Detection	IN
  7	PIR3	Motion Detection	IN
  1	PIR3	Motion Detection	IN

• Arduino nano

  Pin	Device	Device pin	Mode
  A0	Moisture Sensor*	Analog Out	IN
  D12	DHT11	Signal	IN

  * For multiple sensors use differnet Analog pins

• Connect the Pi camera to CSI Port

• Use SSH to access the terminal and run the Python Code

• Connect all the Vdd's and GND's to 5V and GND (or as per instructions given in spec sheet)

Note

• To get the USB Device ID, Use

  ls /dev/tty*
  

  Most Probably the Value will be /dev/ttyUSB0

• Sensor data should be sent in the following pattern

  mositure1,moisture2,moisture3, .... ,moistureN, Temperature,Humidity
  ex : 55.29,52.59,32.5,65.26
