[0071] The control method for the plant container provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1The application environment shown may include: a plant container 101, a gateway 102, a network device 103, a terminal device 104, and / or a server 105. The plant container 101 is pre-deployed with multiple sensors and controllers, which communicate with the terminal device 104 and / or the server 105 via the gateway 102 and the network device 103. The server 105 can store various environmental data uploaded by the sensors and display it synchronously on the display interface of the terminal device 104. Optionally, the terminal device 104 and / or the server 105 receive real-time environmental data collected by multiple sensors in the plant container; receive crop images collected by an image acquisition device in the plant container, and determine the type and corresponding growth stage of the crop based on the crop images; then, based on the type and corresponding growth stage of the crop, determine the control indicators for various environmental data under the current control cycle; generate remote control commands for different controllers based on the difference between the control indicators of various environmental data and the real-time environmental data; send remote control commands to the controllers, and display the execution status of each controller and the changes in real-time environmental data. The terminal device 104 may be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, drones, low-altitude aircraft, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. The server 105 may be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud computing services.

[0072] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a control method for a plant container is provided, which can be applied to... Figure 1 Taking the terminal device and / or server as an example, the explanation includes the following steps S201 to S205. Wherein:

[0073] Step S201: Receive real-time environmental data collected by multiple sensors in the plant container.

[0074] In this embodiment, multiple sensors are pre-installed in the plant container, including at least one of a temperature sensor, humidity sensor, light sensor, and carbon dioxide concentration sensor. Different acquisition frequencies and reporting cycles can be set for different sensors according to actual adjustment needs.

[0075] For example, taking a temperature sensor as an example, temperature data can be collected every 5 or 10 minutes, and the collected temperature data can be reported to the terminal device and / or server every half hour. Each report contains 3 or 6 sets of temperature data.

[0076] As an example, solar panels can be installed on or around the top of the plant container, along with photovoltaic batteries to store excess electrical energy. When the photovoltaic batteries are fully charged, they can power multiple sensors and controllers within the plant container, as well as gateway devices.

[0077] Optionally, when setting the acquisition frequency and reporting cycle of different sensors, the current power level of the photovoltaic battery can be taken into account. That is, the sensor acquisition frequency and reporting cycle are positively correlated with the power level of the photovoltaic battery configured in the plant container. When the photovoltaic battery has sufficient power, the acquisition frequency can be increased and / or the reporting cycle can be shortened.

[0078] For example, the terminal device and / or server receive real-time environmental data reported by various sensors in the plant cabin through a gateway; wherein the real-time environmental data includes at least one of temperature, humidity, brightness and carbon dioxide concentration in the plant cabin.

[0079] It should be understood that this embodiment does not limit the type of sensors or the specific number deployed. The sensors can be flexibly configured according to the area of ​​the plant container or the external natural environment.

[0080] Step S202: Receive crop images collected by the image acquisition device in the plant container, and determine the type and corresponding growth stage of the crop based on the crop images.

[0081] As an example, the image acquisition device can use a high-precision camera or spectrometer. The image acquisition device can be positioned above the plant rack to capture images of the crops being cultivated on it.

[0082] Optionally, when the plant rack is a multi-layered structure, vertical and horizontal slide rails and a propulsion mechanism can be set. Driven by a motor, the propulsion mechanism drives the image acquisition device to move along the slide, thereby acquiring images of crops at different layers.

[0083] Optionally, multiple image acquisition devices can be set at fixed locations in the plant cabin (such as the four corners of the plant cabin) to capture crop images from multiple different angles.

[0084] For example, taking a spectrometer as an example, the terminal device and / or server receive multiple crop images from different angles uploaded by the spectrometer in the plant cabin through the gateway; match the crop images with sample images in the database to determine the type of crop; according to the type of crop, retrieve reference images of the corresponding crop at different growth stages; input the crop images and reference images of different growth stages into the trained learning model, and output the corresponding growth stage of the crop.

[0085] In this embodiment, since multiple different crops may be grown simultaneously in a single plant container, it is necessary to determine the crop type after acquiring crop images. This embodiment uses sample images from a database to match the acquired crop images, and the crop type corresponding to the sample image with the highest similarity is taken as the matching result. Further, after determining the crop type, reference images of that crop at different growth stages are retrieved. For example, taking tomatoes, the growth stages can be subdivided into: emergence stage, seedling stage, growth stage, and maturity stage. The tomato images acquired by the spectrometer, along with reference images of different tomato growth stages, are input into a trained learning model, which then outputs the growth stage corresponding to the tomato image.

[0086] Step S203: Based on the type of crop and its corresponding growth stage, determine the control indicators for various environmental data under the current control cycle.

[0087] In this embodiment, when a single crop is planted in the plant container, the control indicators for various environmental data under the current control cycle can be directly determined based on the type of crop and its corresponding growth stage. For example, taking barley as an example, the growth stages of barley can be divided into: emergence stage, jointing stage, heading stage, and maturity stage; among which, the time range of the emergence stage is 0–9 days after sowing; the time range of the jointing stage is 9–35 days after sowing; the time range of the heading stage is 35–75 days after sowing; and the time range of the maturity stage is 75–120 days after sowing. Specifically, the optimal soil conditions are as follows: for the seedling stage, soil moisture 13-18%RH; soil nitrogen 25-30 mg / kg; soil phosphorus 70-75 mg / kg; soil potassium 30-40 mg / kg; for the jointing stage, the optimal soil conditions are: soil moisture 60-70%RH; soil nitrogen 20-25 mg / kg; soil phosphorus 40-60 mg / kg; soil potassium 35-45 mg / kg; for the heading stage, the optimal soil conditions are: soil moisture 40-70%RH; soil nitrogen 20-25 mg / kg; soil phosphorus 45-50 mg / kg; soil potassium 30-40 mg / kg; and for the maturity stage, the optimal soil conditions are: soil moisture 20-30%RH; soil nitrogen 20-25 mg / kg; soil phosphorus 25-30 mg / kg; soil potassium 35-40 mg / kg. Therefore, the most suitable environmental conditions can be controlled according to the different growth stages of barley.

[0088] It should be understood that the above embodiments use soil moisture and soil fertilizer content as examples. The control methods for air temperature, brightness, carbon dioxide concentration, etc., are similar. Control indicators for various environmental data under the current control period can be selected according to the crop's growth stage.

[0089] The current control cycle is a flexible time range, which can be set in days. During the seedling stage and seed cultivation stage, the control cycle can be shortened to allow for more precise adjustment of environmental conditions for crops.

[0090] Optionally, when the plant container contains two or more crops, the control index ranges for environmental data corresponding to different types of crops at the current growth stage can be determined separately. The control index ranges include at least one of the following: temperature range, soil moisture range, soil fertilizer content range, carbon dioxide concentration range, and light intensity range. Based on the control index ranges for environmental data corresponding to different types of crops, the control indexes for various environmental data under the current control period are determined.

[0091] In this embodiment, taking temperature as an example, it is assumed that eggplant and tomato are grown simultaneously in the plant container. The suitable growth temperature for eggplant is 25-30℃; the suitable average monthly temperature for tomato growth is 20-25℃, the suitable daytime temperature is 20-28℃, the suitable nighttime temperature is 15-18℃, and the suitable diurnal temperature range is 10-15℃. Therefore, considering the temperature range of the two different crops, the temperature control index can be selected as 25-28℃.

[0092] Step S204: Generate remote control commands for different controllers based on the difference between the control indicators of various environmental data and the real-time environmental data.

[0093] In this embodiment, the terminal device and / or server can generate remote control commands for different controllers based on the difference between the control indicators of various environmental data and the real-time environmental data. For example, taking temperature as an example, suppose the temperature sensor collects a real-time temperature of 35°C in the plant cabin, while the temperature control indicator is 25-28°C. At this time, the terminal device and / or server will generate a temperature control command, which is used to control the cooling equipment (such as an air conditioner or exhaust fan) in the plant cabin to increase its output power, or switch it from an off state to an on state.

[0094] Similarly, the difference between real-time humidity and the humidity control index can be used to determine whether to activate the humidifier. If activation is required, a humidification command is generated. The fertilizer blending ratio of the fertigation system can be controlled based on the difference between the content of various fertilizers in the soil and their corresponding control indexes, thus generating a blending command.

[0095] Step S205: Send remote control commands to the controller and display the execution status of each controller and the changes in real-time environmental data.

[0096] In this embodiment, the terminal device and / or server can send the generated remote control commands to the corresponding controllers through the gateway, and dynamically monitor the execution status of each controller (e.g., output power, whether it is started, etc.). Optionally, the real-time environmental changes in the plant cabin can be displayed on the display interface of the terminal device and / or server.

[0097] As an example, charts or trend graphs can be used to display the changes in various environmental data. This allows for a very intuitive view of the process and effect of environmental condition regulation within the plant cabin.

[0098] For example, the terminal device and / or server send temperature control commands to the cooling or heating equipment in the plant container, control the output power of the cooling or heating equipment, and display the current operating status of the cooling or heating equipment, as well as the temperature changes in the plant container.

[0099] For example, the terminal device and / or server send humidification commands to the humidifier in the plant cabin, control the output power of the humidifier, and display the current execution status of the humidifier and the humidity changes in the plant cabin.

[0100] For example, the terminal device and / or server sends a dispensing instruction to the water and fertilizer controller in the plant container, controls the water and fertilizer controller to dispense water and various fertilizers in proportion, and links with the solenoid valve of the irrigation pipeline to perform irrigation of crops and display the irrigation status of crops in each area.

[0101] For example, the terminal device and / or server send on or off commands to the supplemental lighting equipment in the plant cabin, control the on or off of the supplemental lighting equipment, and display the on / off status of each supplemental lighting equipment, as well as the changes in light intensity in the plant cabin.

[0102] It should be understood that this embodiment is not limited to the type of controller described above. In addition to the controllers described above, other types of controllers may be added depending on the geographical environment of the plant container.

[0103] In the aforementioned control method for the plant container, real-time environmental data collected by multiple sensors within the plant container is received; crop images captured by an image acquisition device within the plant container are also received, and the crop type and corresponding growth stage are determined based on the crop images. This allows for accurate acquisition of the current environmental data and crop growth status within the plant container, facilitating subsequent adjustments to environmental conditions to ensure the crops are always in an optimal growth environment. Based on the crop type and corresponding growth stage, control indicators for various environmental data within the current control cycle are determined; thus, control indicators for each environmental data point can be determined according to the crop type and growth stage, achieving precise environmental regulation. Based on the difference between the control indicators of various environmental data and the real-time environmental data, remote control commands are generated for different controllers; this allows for simultaneous generation of remote control commands for multiple controllers, enabling remote dynamic control of each controller. Remote control commands are sent to the controllers, and the execution status of each controller, as well as changes in real-time environmental data, are displayed. This allows for precise control of the environmental conditions of the plant container remotely. For different types of crops and different growth stages, the control indicators of environmental data can be dynamically adjusted to ensure that the crops are always in the best growing environment, thereby improving the cultivation efficiency and yield of crops.

[0104] In another exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a control method for a plant container is provided, which can be applied to... Figure 1 Taking the terminal device and / or server as an example, the explanation includes the following steps S301 to S307. Wherein:

[0105] Step S301: Receive real-time environmental data collected by multiple sensors in the plant container.

[0106] Step S302: Receive crop images collected by the image acquisition device in the plant container, and determine the type and corresponding growth stage of the crop based on the crop images.

[0107] Step S303: Based on the type of crop and its corresponding growth stage, determine the control indicators for various environmental data under the current control cycle.

[0108] Step S304: Based on the difference between the control indicators of various environmental data and the real-time environmental data, generate remote control commands for different controllers.

[0109] Step S305: Send remote control commands to the controller and display the execution status of each controller and the changes in real-time environmental data.

[0110] For the specific implementation process and technical effects of steps S301 to S305 in this embodiment, please refer to [link to documentation]. Figure 2 The relevant descriptions of steps S201 to S205 in the method embodiment shown will not be repeated here.

[0111] Step S306: Receive power data of the photovoltaic battery sent by the power sensor, as well as weather data of the area where the plant container is located.

[0112] In this embodiment, the terminal device and / or server can receive power data of the photovoltaic battery sent by the power sensor through the gateway. The terminal device and / or server can also obtain weather data for the area where the plant cabin is located via a network or a mini-program. For example, it can be set to update the weather data for the area where the plant cabin is located every two hours.

[0113] Step S307: Adjust the acquisition frequency and reporting cycle of each sensor in the plant cabin according to the power data and weather data; and / or control the opening degree of the outer curtain of the plant cabin.

[0114] In this embodiment, the terminal device and / or server can remotely control the acquisition frequency and reporting cycle of each sensor in the plant container based on power and weather data. Alternatively, the terminal device and / or server can feed back power and weather data to each sensor, triggering the sensor to autonomously adjust its acquisition frequency and reporting cycle.

[0115] In this embodiment, when the power level drops rapidly, the supplemental lighting equipment inside the plant cabin can be turned off, and the roller blinds around the plant cabin can be raised to allow natural light to enter. Similarly, when the temperature inside the plant cabin drops and the remaining power of the photovoltaic battery is insufficient to support the continuous high-power output of the heating equipment, all the roller blinds around the plant cabin can be raised, allowing sunlight to shine on the crops through the transparent glass of the plant cabin, forming a greenhouse and thus increasing the temperature inside the plant cabin.

[0116] For example, when the power data shows that the photovoltaic battery's power is below a preset first threshold and the weather data shows that the current weather is cloudy or rainy, the collection frequency of each sensor in the plant cabin is reduced and / or the reporting cycle is extended; when the power data shows that the photovoltaic battery's power is above the preset first threshold but below the preset second threshold, the collection frequency and reporting cycle of each sensor in the plant cabin are kept unchanged; when the power data shows that the photovoltaic battery's power is above the preset second threshold and the weather data shows that the current weather is cloudy or sunny, the collection frequency of each sensor in the plant cabin is increased and / or the reporting cycle is shortened.

[0117] It should be understood that the embodiments of this application do not limit the specific values ​​of the preset first threshold and the preset second threshold, which can be flexibly set according to at least one of the actual power consumption of the plant container, the sunshine conditions of the area where the plant container is located, and the capacity of the photovoltaic battery.

[0118] In this embodiment, the system can dynamically adjust the data collection frequency and reporting cycle of each sensor within the plant cabin by using power data from the photovoltaic battery sensor and weather data from the area where the plant cabin is located; and / or control the opening degree of the outer curtain of the plant cabin. This allows for precise control of environmental conditions while conserving energy and improving energy efficiency within the plant cabin.

[0119] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowcharts of the above embodiments are shown sequentially according to the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders.
