Scope:
To develop and implement a system to maintain
a freshwater aquaculture system at ideal conditions to rear bait shrimp.
Key Business Goals:
To develop an economical, yet feasible, product
that will more than adequately benefit the consumer.
Target Market:
This particular product is to be marketed towards
aquaculture farmers, bait shops, fishermen, and those research facilities
interested in the production of shrimp in ideal conditions.
Assumptions/Constraints:
In developing this product, several assumptions
have been made which will/are placing constraints on the overall project.
It is believed that the daily amount of solar radiation will be enough
to charge the solar cells. Also it has been assumed that the said
latitude of the location (29.1°) will remain the same. The
product is to maintain ideal conditions for optimum shrimp growth.
