REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM IN MOBILE SILKWORM HOUSES FOR ENHANCING SILK WEIGHT AND QUALITY

Abstract

This research focuses on the implementation of a remote control system in mobile silkworm houses to improve the weight and quality of silk fibers. The use of a lightweight and portable worm house, equipped with a mechatronic system, resulted in significant improvements in the weight and quality parameters of the obtained silk fibers compared to the traditional method. The integration of special sensors within the greenhouse allows for remote monitoring of CO2 levels. In case of CO2 exceeding the permissible limit, the ventilation system can be remotely activated, and it will be deactivated once the CO2 levels return to the normal range. Comparative analysis was conducted between the silk yield from the mobile worm house and other conventional worm houses, demonstrating the favorable outcomes of the portable wormery with the mechatronic system.
