Farming and Automation. How Professional Visions Change with the Introduction of ICT in Greenhouse Cultivation
摘要
With this contribution, we would like to contextualize an IoT and Artificial Intelligence project in the current work practices of greenhouse growers. The project follows the user-centered design process in the field of Human-Computer Interaction. We carried out user studies by interviewing experts competent in greenhouse work. In particular, we asked ourselves how practices, perceptions, and cognitions change following the introduction of technologies in the greenhouse. The qualitative work on the interviews allowed us to isolate some constants that will subsequently bring us to improve the usability of the technologies to support growers, taking into account their particular professional skills.
