Science Popularization Course of "Zero-carbon Community - Smart Greenhouse" Programming and Integrated Circuit

In September 2022, GigaDevice IC Museum successfully organized the Science Popularization Course of "Zero-carbon Community - Smart Greenhouse" Programming and Integrated Circuit on the Family Day in offices of Hefei, Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, Xi'an and Shenzhen. Themed on "Low Carbon and Environmental Protection", the Family Day had many educational, interesting and exciting links. Children were firstly guided to learn graphical programming beginning with simple concepts such as programs and conditional judgments. Later, with the help of parents and volunteer teachers, they assembled the smart greenhouse and downloaded the program onto the main control board based on the GD32 MCU. Using light sensors, temperature sensors and soil moisture sensors, they were able to perform efficient and energy-saving farming scenarios through the functions of automatic light supplement, automatic ventilation and automatic irrigation.

This year, the smart greenhouse project that incorporated the element of IoT and a series of courses provided children and young people with opportunities to learn about the concept of IoT and the role of chips in IoT development.
