Abstract

The progress of electronic technology is growing rapidly and is very influential in the manufacture of sophisticated tools, namely tools that can work automatically and have high accuracy so as to facilitate work done by humans to be more practical, economical and automatic. In everyday life both in cities and in rural areas, there are many fish keepers in ponds both large and small. Catfish is a fish that has several features and is of great interest to the public for consumption. Catfish farming can be divided into 3 phases, namely the hatchery phase, the pededer phase and the enlargement phase. One of the main factors in the growth of catfish is feed. Problems that often occur due to daily feed needs must be in accordance with the daily feeding and feeding schedule. That is because catfish feed greatly affects the addition of weight, length or volume of catfish. In an effort to overcome this, it is necessary to make an automatic catfish feeder by utilizing Internet of Things (IoT) technology. With this tool, feeding can be done to catfish automatically regarding the time or schedule of feeding and the amount or dose of feed. so that the availability of feed can be controlled properly. The IoT-based catfish feeding device uses ESP8266 as its microcontroller besides that ESP8266 also functions to send fish feed capacity data to Thinger.io by using a connected wifi connection.
