Description of Invention

In recent years, mushroom cultivation has gained prominence due to its nutritional and economic benefits. However, maintaining optimal growth conditions and managing environmental fluctuations are significant challenges. To address these issues, we propose *MushGuard*, a Smart Mushroom Incubator leveraging IoT and ResNet-CNN technologies. Our system employs IoT sensors to continuously monitor critical parameters such as temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, and substrate moisture. Data collected by these sensors is analyzed using a ResNet-CNN model to predict and adjust environmental conditions. The system integrates real-time data transmission to a central server, where it enables automated control and remote management through a smartphone interface. This approach ensures precise regulation of the incubation environment, enhances growth conditions, and reduces manual intervention, thereby improving the overall efficiency of mushroom cultivation.
