The GSM module provides the system with remote access, whereby the user can monitor the temperature as well switch the system on and off. The temperature is monitored by a digital thermometer DS1820 and controlled by a microcontroller AT89S52 embedded with a software program which toggles it between high and low temperature. The system is designed to incubate different types of eggs, having a user friendly interface to set the temperature range for its operation. The Smart egg incubator system with GSM remote access control is a microcontroller based temperature control and monitoring system. The system can be used for different types of egg as it gives room for adjustment of the temperature and also adjustment of the spinning time through its setting bottoms. The result obtained shows that the system could regulate the temperature within the range of 37 o C to 39 o C which was adequate for the egg to hatch.

For remote monitoring, a GSM module to send temperature and humidity update on request to the farmer, this makes the system flexible as it reduces stress of visiting the location of the incubator. To monitor the temperature and moist level in the farm, an LCD displays the status of the incubator temperature and humidity. A sound sensor picks the sound from a day old chicks to send message to the farmer, alerting the condition of the farm. Due to temperature and humidity variation, the eggs may hatch at about 21 days. An egg tray was attached to a DC motor to form the egg spinning mechanism to spin the egg at angle 45 o at interval of an hour.

To achieve temperature regulation, a DHT22 sensor is integrated into automatically temperature and humidity monitoring system of the incubation system that ensures the temperature and humidity are within the required value. It entails an automatic transfer switch that transfers the load to any available source by making the grid the priority to make sure that there will be steady power supply. The Automated smart egg incubator is microcontroller based device that can aid in large proportion production of chicks for poultry establishment.
