ARDUINO-BASED MECHATRONICS FOR TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY CONTROL IN SILKWORM EGG INCUBATION
Abstract
Silkworm egg hatcheries play a vital role in sericulture, but maintaining precise temperature and moisture conditions is critical for successful hatching. This study introduces an Arduino-based mechatronic system designed to enhance temperature and moisture control in silkworm egg hatcheries
