Yield Smart

What it does

Yield Smart is an innovative app designed to revolutionize plant care and farming by leveraging the power of AI, IoT, and real-time data. The app serves two primary segments: urban dwellers and farmers. For urban users, Yield Smart allows plants to communicate their needs through real-time sensor data, providing insights on factors like sunlight, temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and rainfall. Users can interact with their plants via text or voice, making plant care engaging and accessible. For farmers, Yield Smart offers an advanced field monitoring system, using AI and OpenCV to scan, grid, and analyse large fields, providing valuable insights for crop management and yield improvement.

Firebase plays a crucial role in this ecosystem, updating sensor data in real-time and facilitating seamless communication between users and the Gemini LLM. After a user’s voice input is recorded and converted to text, it is sent to Firebase, where the Gemini API processes the query and generates natural language responses. These responses are then sent back to Firebase, fetched by the microcontroller, and converted to speech for the user. This setup ensures efficient, real-time interaction, making the user experience intuitive and smooth. Additionally, Gemini’s capabilities are integrated into the Yield Smart web app, where users can upload images of their plants for diagnosis and receive AI-powered recommendations and advice, further enhancing the plant care and farming experience.
