Date:Abstract
The neonatal incubator has been highly and equipped well modelled and developed
through the incorporation of surrounded humidity and temperature system controller.The system
has got two compartment chambers that is the larger and smaller.The smaller compartment
consists of the humidity and temperature controlling units while the larger compartment is made
up of a mattress where the eggs are placed[Bur00]. Accordingly the control system components
have been equipped with relatively sensitive sensors, bulbs, funs, heater and the Arduino Uno
microcontroller. Moreover, for the systems implementation a software has been put in place to
ensure the well-functioning of the system. The software program used has been developed in C
programming language and it comprise of a code editor.
For the matter of clarification of its functioning a flowcharts has been readily availed to
provide logical illustrations on the expression of the program.However, the silent structures of
this kind of model is that it is exclusively micro-controlled based, and as a result of this fact it
can therefore be locally developed at favorably lower costs even though it is a more sophisticated
version of a conventional kind of incubator system. According to the functionality of the system
is has been found to be quite effective in terms of both temperature and humidity regulation. The
system is able to regulate the temperature at a desired level of 360 C to 370 C and the relative
humidity at the set level of 73%. On top of that the incubator is free of the health
vulnerabilities[Eme03]. The incubator may be commercially used for commercial services by
business corporations or may be individually serve the specific needs of poultry farmer for their
own unique reasons.CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BackgroundArduino UNO incubator is a device that provides the required humidity and warmth
necessary for the hatching of the eggs all at a controlled environment in any particular region of
the globe. The incubator provides a conducive required conditions for the hatch of eggs, through
the provision of a homogeneous and stable temperature and relative humidity level necessary
hatching egg conditions[Lew15].
