Abstract
Intent of the proposal is to use the renewable source of power to ensure a steady power supply to the remote rural area and to reduce cost involved in the hatcheries. PV powered incubator is designed with multi specification for different types of eggs. System automatically regulate the required specification such as temperature, humidity, ventilation, angular position etc., which are considered to be the most fix on factor of hatching a healthy hatchling. Menu key provided in the system provide the flexibility to use all kinds of egg hatchings. GSM module interfaced with the system, provide the real time condition to be the mobile periodically which ensure additional supervisory over the system. If any problem arises in regulating the specification automatically system activate the alter system buzzer and SMS.
