Project Overview

The Polynet Greenhouse Monitor is a modern, IoT-powered mobile application designed for efficient greenhouse management. Developed by Aqualink Bangladesh Ltd, this comprehensive solution addresses the critical challenges faced by modern greenhouse operators in maintaining optimal growing conditions while maximizing resource efficiency and crop yields. After logging in, users are directed to a user-friendly dashboard where they can select and monitor their greenhouse. The dashboard displays vital environmental data in real-time, including temperature, humidity, and soil moisture levels. Users can seamlessly switch between auto and manual modes for various peripherals such as fans, pumps, lights, and irrigation systems. The app features a side drawer where users can change the app language to suit their preferences and set custom schedules for peripherals to operate automatically, ensuring crops receive optimal care without constant supervision. Whether managing a small greenhouse or a large agricultural setup, Polynet Greenhouse offers precision, control, and convenience at your fingertips.
