ABSTRACT: Now a day’s technology is running with time, it completely occupied the life style of human beings. Even though there is such an importance for technology in our routine life there are even people whose life styles are very far to this well-known term technology. So it is our responsibility to design few reliable systems which can be even efficiently used by them, farmers. The farmer who toil and does hard work to produce the crop suffers a lot at the end. The factors include unexpected rains when yielded crop is dried before selling, which will completely destroy the crop yield or make the yield second grade. To avoid such condition, automatic rain protected drying sheds are to be developed. In this project, we propose a system in which the rains are detected automatically and protective shield is wrapped on the rooftop sensor an intelligent microcontroller and a DC motor are employed. The rain sensor of such drying shed which protect the crop against rain and getting wet. To automate this task, a rain senses the rain and data is passed to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the data and activates the DC motor control circuit and a protective wrapper is wrapped on the roof top. INTRODUCTION HARDWARE: 1. 2. 3.

HARDWARE MICRO CONTROLLER Microprocessors and microcontrollers are used in embedded system products. An embedded product uses a microprocessor (or microcontroller) to do one task and one task only. A microcontroller is a computer on a single chip .Micro suggest that the device is small and controller tells that the device is used to control objects, process or events. Microcontroller is a highly integrated chip that contains all the devices comprising a computer. Typically this includes a CPU, RAM, Input/ Output ports, timers, interrupts. So microcontroller is also called as "true computer on a chip". Unlike a general purpose computer which also includes all of these devices. A microcontroller is designed for a very specific task to control a particular system. In the concerned project 8052 microcontroller is used. Here microcontroller used is AT89C52, which is manufactured by ATMEL laboratories. D.C MOTOR We are using 12 volts D.c motor to run the sheds. D.c motor is connected to the shafts of the shed using gears so that moving of shed takes place. The power supply for the D.c motor is given through the step down transformer. We are using two D.c motors.
