Precise control of humidity is essential for achieving optimal crop growth in greenhouse environments. This paper presents an Internet of Things (IoT)-based humidity measurement and control system using VLSI architecture for automated greenhouse management. The proposed system employs a humidity sensor to continuously monitor environmental conditions, and the acquired data are processed by a VLSI-based controller implemented using Verilog HDL. The controller compares the measured humidity with predefined threshold values and generates control signals to regulate actuators such as exhaust fans and humidifiers. An IoT module facilitates real-time data transmission to a cloud platform, enabling remote monitoring and data logging. The integration of VLSI technology ensures low power consumption, high processing speed, and reliable operation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system effectively maintains desired humidity levels while minimizing human intervention and energy usage, thereby enhancing greenhouse productivity and sustainability.
