Abstract

This paper presents the design a cloud based IoT enabled smart agriculture application for Hi-Tech tissue cultured sugarcane crop entitled “Design of Centralized Intelligent Expert System and Contamination Detection of Tissue Cultured Sugarcane Crop”. This expert system comprises of Raspberry Pi-4 (RPi), Arduino-Mega, GSM-Modem (Sim900) and sensor-modules for monitoring and control of essential parameters of laboratory for monitoring the physical parameters. The parameters monitored are temperature, humidity and light intensity of the tissue culture growth rooms with artificial day light timing and control, however, AI-based health prediction suggests the image processing for detection of culture contamination of sugarcane crop inside the growth-room. In addition, fire-smoke sensor and methane gas sensor are incorporated for fire protection and to avoid any disastrous situation. Three numbers of webcams are attached to the RPi for monitoring growth and health of explants. An AI-Model / weight was developed for detection of contamination that predicts the for health of Tissue Cultured Sugarcane Crop. Moreover, image enhancement was covered applying Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN)”. In this system, the RPi reads sensor's data through Arduino and convert it to data-frame with timestamp and geo-tag. The data along with the captured images are sent to a centralize cloud application for applying data mining and Artificial Intelligence; however, the model of contamination detection has been applied at edge device. This is to get meaningful insights of data for future decision making in maximizing crop yield and quality. Due to the great need of sugarcane crop in Pakistan, the Plant Tissue Culture (PTC) technology has been incorporated with Artificial Intelligence, the proposed system is aimed to be installed at established PTC-growth-rooms for sugarcane crop so the experts of field can be connected to the cloud application for its monitoring, control and data analytics. In addition, the use of telepresence through cloud application will enable PTC-experts to provide assistance to the remote user and resolve their issues timely, thus extending PTC technology all over the country which will eventually lead to increased crop yield with quality products in affordable price.
