Iot-based feeding with watering system for chickens
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - Mid La Union Campus, 2025-05) Satur, Leana S.; Acosta, Patrick John G.; Padilla, Jarie U.; Isip, Kurdt Zildjian M.; Tayya, Jomar T.
In order to increase chicken farming's sustainability and efficiency, this study proposes the design and deployment of an Internet of Things-based feeding and watering system. Its central component is the ESP32 microprocessor, which was chosen for its integrated Wi-Fi and low power consumption. To ensure accurate quantities and reduce waste, the ESP32 manages a servo motor to dispense feed at predetermined times or as needed. Storage is monitored by a feed level sensor, which sends out cloud-based notifications when levels fall below a predetermined point. Through a web or mobile application, users may remotely monitor feed status and set schedules. A gravity-fed watering system offers a dependable, low-maintenance water source for hydration without the need for electricity pumps, which makes it sustainable and energy-efficient. This integrated system promotes intelligent agricultural methods, improves animal care, and uses less labor. It encourages data-driven decision-making and fits nicely with contemporary agricultural trends toward automation and sustainability, making it perfect for small to medium-sized chicken businesses.
IoT-based clothes dryer
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University - Mid La Union Campus, 2025-05) Tangyab, Duvid Charles L.; Flores, John Rannie H.; Ganayo, Darius B.; Labis, Aldrin Jr.; Nisperos, Angelica C.
This study focuses on the design, development, and performance evaluation of an IoT-Based Clothes Dryer using a developmental research approach. The project aimed to address common limitations in traditional clothes drying methods, such as dependency on favorable weather, lack of automation, and inefficient energy usage. The system utilized the ESP8266 microcontroller, along with sensors to monitor temperature, humidity, and moisture levels, and was integrated with the Blynk mobile application for remote control. Users were able to start or stop the drying process and set the drying time through their smartphones, providing greater convenience and flexibility. Testing was conducted to evaluate the dryer’s performance in terms of drying temperature, drying time, capacity, and moisture content. Results indicated that the prototype efficiently dried clothes while reducing manual effort and promoting energy-saving practices. The findings highlight the potential of integrating IoT technologies into household appliances to enhance functionality, improve efficiency, and elevate the user experience.
Development of automatic fire emergency alert locator
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University – Mid La Union Campus, 2024-05) Lorilla, Lemuel A.; Fernandez, Eunice D.; Jacusalem, Maryjoy Denisse R.; Morales, Kaye T.; Nerveza, Renmark D.
Across the country, fire has been a perennial problem due to weather and combustible materials often used in residential and industrial structures. In a fire emergency, quick and effective emergency response is crucial. Immediate action can save lives, minimize injuries, and reduce property damage. This study aimed to develop and test the capability of the Automatic Fire Emergency Alert Locator ( A.F.E.A.L.) in sending fire emergency alert information to a predefined contact (during fire emergency is the Bureau of Fire Protection). The Developmental Research Design was utilized to satisfy the objectives presented in this study which includes designing, constructing, and testing the device's technical performance. The Automatic Fire Emergency Alert Locator (A.F.E.AL.) was able to send a text message requesting an emergency response to the location of the residence, a call, and or through the internet with Google Maps for more specific location.
Automated water pump system protection
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University- Mid La Union Campus, 2025-05) Tumagcao, Christian Jairus Z.; Marzan, John Marlo R.; Olarte, Trexer John H.; Rogero, Jean Andrea F.; Viloria, Jayson M.
The developed automated water pump system protection focuses on enhancing the operational safety and efficiency of water pump systems, specifically for applications in both residential and institutional. It aims to address issues related to water pump overloading, dry-run operation, and electrical faults which commonly lead to damage, increased maintenance costs, and water supply disruptions. The proposed system integrates automated control and protection mechanisms that monitor the water level, pressure, voltage, and current to prevent potential system failures. It is designed to ensure a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and sustainable solution that prolongs the lifespan of the water pump system while maintaining a reliable water supply. The inclusion of renewable energy sources, such as solar power, is considered to minimize operational costs and contribute to environmental sustainability. The technical design of this automated water pump system is expected to support the university's broader efforts in sustainability and infrastructure resilience, while also serving as a model for similar applications in other communities.
Seaweed pre-drying system
(Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University- Mid La Union Campus, 2024-09) Gagarin, Francis Gene D.; Bravo, James Ivan R.; Jucar, Timothy James G.; Latorre, Mary Joy R.; Ramos, Kenneth Kyle B.
Seaweed is an extremely precious resource since it is utilized in food, drugs, and biofuels. However, the high water content of seaweed can pose many problems in storage, transportation, and processing. For instance, in the Philippines, one of the largest seaweed exporting coastlines in the world, farmers generally sun-dry their seaweed for up to 3 days in order to reach their targeted product quality. This method has major drawbacks since it takes a lot of time and depends on weather conditions, making the method inefficient at times. This study aims to develop a pre-drying technique to reduce the moisture content of freshly harvested seaweed before it’s processed further. With this, the seaweed farmers will benefit as this automatic pre-drying machine offers a big help to lessen the time of processing the seaweed.
