Proposed Model for Sustainable and Scalable Vertical Farm

This project summarizes the implementation of vertical farming that uses a Wi-Fi network to
communicate with sensors and actuators from multiple nodes. It addresses the issue of ordinary
vertical farms, which require the user to monitor it occasionally to provide fertilizer and water.
The system can be easily configured to automatically control the supply of nutrients, water, and
light requirements for various plant types through a mobile application enabled Interface. The
mobile application dashboard can further provide a complex analysis of the whole system by
collecting values from different sensors. The designed vertical farm system is power efficient,
self-sustained, and can be set up easily by the user as each vertical rack acts as a single node or
module. The user only needs to plant the seeds and fill up the tanks. Due to the modular
approach, the system is also scalable without the requirement of more complicated materials or
wiring.
