Abstract

For measuring plant height, an automated system as an indicator in the growing plant has developed in a modified micro propagation system. In the agricultural sector, there is some kind of work that needs monitoring, especially on corn. The monitoring will be used starting from the height measurement of plant manually or physical documentation condition from a plant using human resources. To capture and deliver the data by the farmer manually done and has to be informed quickly, then data from the farmer will be delivered to The Coordinator of Farmer. There is always occurred a problem with providing the data manually, more time is needed, and the accuracy of data not good enough. Because of this case, there is a required technology that can help this kind of work. The ultrasonic sensor as an electronic component is being used for the height of corn plant measurement automatically under the Raspberry Pi controller. The component work is being controlled by Raspberry Pi for how the system is working and deliver the data. The process of transmitting data will use Local Area Network (LAN) on the same IP Address. The monitoring results can be used as a reference regarding the health of the plant being monitored. This system can monitor the growth of corn, whether healthy or there is a problem, so that countermeasures can be taken more quickly and precisely.
