ABSTRACT
Recently, the food self-sufficiency rate has been declining due to the declining productivity and efficiency of the rural population and aging population. Due to this, applying smart farm related technologies are gradually increased in a wide range of farming circumstances. However, the extendibility and compatibility among sensors and control system are still having long way to go due to the lack of standardization for smart farm. To enhance the extendibility and compatibility in the smart farm circumstance, we propose and describe the data converter which is able to support a various interface of sensors as well as actuators. The main control part in the data converter communicates with sensor-actuator interface using internal communication protocols to be able to enhance the compatibility and extendibility. Extendable sensor-actuator interface supports sensor data gathering as well as actuator control. And, there are also the system configuration and network interfaces. Communication with server is supported by using the MQTT protocol and JSON data format.
