Real-Time Web-Based Monitoring System for Temperature, Humidity, and Solar Panels in Ramie Drying Facilities

Abstract

Purpose: To address the manual monitoring challenges in processing ramie fibers, especially during drying. The purpose is to create a monitoring system that oversees room temperature, humidity, and the status of solar panels, crucial factors in ramie productivity.Methods: Real-time web-based system development that monitors room temperature, humidity, and the performance of solar panels in a ramie drying room using the Internet of Things architecture ESP32 with communication through GSM SIM 800L in rural areas.Results: The system can display real-time information such as temperature data, humidity, and electrical energy parameters derived from the solar panel's utilization in the ramie drying room. By doing so, users gain efficiency and effectiveness in obtaining information, significantly enhancing ramie fiber productivity.Novelty:  Integration of sensor instruments, low-power ESP32 microcontrollers, GSM Telecommunication, Solar Cell Energy as a power source, and a real-time web-based Monitoring Information System implemented in a ramie drying dome. This simplifies the monitoring process and optimizes limited resources such as space, energy, telecommunications, and human resources, which are typically constrained infrastructure in the ramie fiber agricultural system.
