The article “Thinking about an Automatic Nutrient Dosing System for your commercial grow? Here’s what you need to know” (Advanced Nutrients, 2018) introduces an automatic nutrient dosing system in the hydroponics industry. This system is a “mechanized nutrient delivery system” that delivers an accurate amount of nutrient solution to crops. Among its benefits, this system eliminates human error and the reduction of overall workloads (Morr, 2019). It also saves money in the long run as this system can bring about increased yield of higher quality crops while reducing waste of water and nutrients. The smart controller in the automated nutrient dosing system has provided undeniable benefits by working in unison  with other features of the system such as the pumps and sensor. One of the main features of the automated nutrient dosing system is its smart controller. It is the brain of the system where it controls other features of the system such as the pump modules and a variety of senso...

 In my group project. I have researched mainly on the desirability of implementing a smart cart in Singapore. I came across a article, "Here's why more than half of Singaporeans still prefer in-store shopping". Where it states that even though majority of Singaporeans shoppers prefer to browse online web store before visiting its respective physical store, 56% of shoppers still prefer to buy in-store as they will be able to validate the product's quality before purchasing. Next i have researched on the ergonomics of a smart cart, where we take into account variables that we have to take note such as the overall speed of the cart to accommodate to our walking speed. I have also researched the average height and reach of a Singaporean so as to implement the most ergonomic smart cart for the user. I have also tried to research on the user interface of the cart, determining whether if there is stuffs that we can further implement or improve on the existing interface to ac...

  The article “Thinking about an Automatic Nutrient Dosing System for your commercial grow? Here’s what you need to know” (Advanced Nutrients, 2023) introduces an automatic nutrient dosing system. This system is a “mechanized nutrient delivery system” that delivers an accurate amount of nutrient solution to crops. One Crucial feature of the Automated Nutrient Dosing System is its smart controllers. It is the brain of the system where it controls other key features of the system such as the pump modules and sensors. (Ag-Con, 2023) It also has cloud connectivity, which allows the user to monitor their plants in real time and control the dosing system remotely. Among its benefits, this system eliminates human error and the reduction of overall workloads (MORR, 2023). It also saves money in the long run as this system can bring about increased yield of higher quality crops while reducing waste of water and nutrients.

Shaun and I have decided to research the indoor farming system because we felt it was relevant to Singapore. To kickstart our research, we relied on ChatGPT to provide us with an overview of different technologies and mechanisms used in indoor farming systems.  With the help of ChatGPT, we decided to narrow down to an automated nutrient delivery system. Using google and YouTube, we managed to gain more insights on the features of this automated nutrient delivery system. We then googled some indoor farms in Singapore using this technology and also companies that produce this delivery system. From this process, we also found out that the Singapore food agency (SFA) has a ‘30 by 30’ goal. The goal is to build up Singapore’s indoor farming systems such that it is capable of producing 30 percent of Singapore’s nutritional needs sustainably by 2030. From the articles, we have also identified the benefits and limitations of the system.
