| Abstract | This work proposes a design for a prototype which is intended to become an incremental innovation for one the most recent agricultural technologies: the irrigation pivots. The prototype is aimed to achieve the following goals: a more efficient use of the water employed in the irrigation as well as avoiding long journeys simply to turn on/off the pivot or to control its performance. The hardware part is based on the single-board computer Raspberry Pi together with the Custard Pi 2 board for connecting the prototype to some elements of the pivot such as sensors, actuator, etc. These elements allow a monitoring of the pivot and they can be used to detect risk events (loss of water supply pressure, unexpected shutdown, etc.). The software part employs PHP programming language in order to offer the final user a web interface that enables them a remotely controlling and monitoring of the pivot. For reading the information which comes from the external elements of the pivot that are connected to the prototype, Python language programming is used. The major criteria considered during the design process are: (1) the interface web must have a proper degree of usability for both PCs and mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops, etc.) – this is achieved by means of jQuery Mobile technology; (2) the prototype must offer the final user a system of alerts to warn them whenever a risk event takes place – automatic emailing is the basis of the alert system; (3) the prototype must constitute itself as an efficient technology, so as to |
