Abstract

The automation of solar dryers improves their efficiency, reliability, and usability by incorporating modern technology into traditional drying methods. This project aims to design an automated solar dryer system that utilizes a PIC16F877A microcontroller, DHT22 sensors for monitoring temperature and humidity, and a stepper motor for stirring. The system features a heating mechanism and a pulley system to avoid overheating, while LoRa communication and the Blynk app facilitate real time data transmission and notifications. The proposed solution seeks to optimize drying processes, enhance energy efficiency, and minimize manual intervention. This research underscores the potential of automated solar dryers in both agricultural and industrial settings, highlighting their sustainability and scalability for wider adoption.
