ESP32 Aquaculture Monitoring Kit: Predict Daily Nutrient Needs Using TDS, pH, DO & Temp
ESP32 Aquaculture Monitoring Kit: Predict Daily Nutrient Needs Using TDS, pH, DO & Temp
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Deploy a multi-parameter water quality logger that continuously records TDS, electrical conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen, and pond temperature, then feeds that data into a Python regression model that forecasts exactly how much feed your fish need tomorrow. This kit turns raw sensor readings into actionable insights for precision aquaculture.
What You'll Build
A fully enclosed, waterproof monitoring unit that mounts at the pond edge. The OLED displays live readings; the onboard RTC timestamps every sample stored on the microSD. Once you've collected a week of data, a provided Jupyter notebook trains a linear regression model on the correlations between water parameters and historical feed quantities, giving you a daily feed prediction with over 90% accuracy.
What You'll Learn
- Interface multiple analog water quality sensors (TDS, pH, DO) with the ESP32's ADC, applying calibration curves
- Set up SPI communication for a real-time clock (DS3231) and SD card logging
- Design a 12V-to-5V regulated power supply using an LM2596 buck converter for outdoor deployment
- Train a regression model with Python's scikit-learn to predict fish feed quantity from logged water quality parameters

Who This Kit Is For
B.Tech students in ECE, EEE, or Agriculture Engineering building IoT-based aquaculture projects; aquaculture researchers at agricultural universities; agri-tech startup teams prototyping precision feeding systems for inland fisheries; participants in Smart India Hackathon developing sustainable farming solutions.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Our AI companion walks you through each step; if further help is needed, simply send a WhatsApp message to our Bengaluru support team for a personalized video walkthrough.
How do I interpret the regression model output?
The AI companion includes a Jupyter notebook that guides you through loading the CSV data from the SD card, cleaning it, training a linear regression model, and evaluating its predictions, so you'll see how each water parameter influences feeding needs.
Can this kit be used in saltwater aquaculture?
Yes, the waterproof DS18B20 sensors and epoxy-sealed pH/DO probes handle saline conditions; just ensure regular cleaning of electrodes as described in the companion guide.
What programming skills do I need?
You'll need beginner-level Arduino IDE experience for the ESP32 firmware, and basic Python for the regression analysis. The AI companion provides the full code and explanations.
