Description
Arduino automatic plant watering system
Are you looking for an innovative and efficient way to maintain your garden or plants without constant monitoring? Introducing the Automatic Plant Watering System using Arduino UNO—a perfect project for school and EEE final year students. This system offers a practical solution for plant care, ensuring your plants receive the right amount of water at the right time.
Key Components:
- Arduino UNO: The brain of the system, responsible for controlling the entire process.
- 9V Battery: Powers the system, making it portable and easy to set up anywhere.
- Soil Moisture Sensor: Detects the soil’s moisture level and sends data to the Arduino.
- 1-Channel Relay: Acts as a switch to control the water pump based on the moisture level.
- Mini Water Pump: Delivers water to the plants when the soil is dry.
- LCD Display with I2C: Displays real-time information about soil moisture levels and system status.
How It Works:
The Automatic Plant Watering System uses a soil moisture sensor to monitor the moisture level in the soil. When the sensor detects that the soil is dry, it sends a signal to the Arduino UNO. The Arduino then activates the relay, which turns on the mini water pump. The pump waters the plants until the soil moisture reaches the desired level. The system continuously monitors the soil and ensures that your plants are always well-watered.
Why Choose This Project?
- Educational Value: Ideal for school and EEE final year projects, offering hands-on experience with Arduino programming, electronics, and sensors.
- Efficiency: Automatically waters plants, saving time and ensuring consistent care.
- Portability: Powered by a 9V battery, allowing for flexible installation in gardens, balconies, or indoor setups.
- User-Friendly Interface: The LCD display with I2C provides easy-to-read information on soil moisture levels, making it simple to monitor and adjust the system.
Applications:
- Home gardens
- Indoor plants
- Agricultural fields
- Educational demonstrations
This project is an excellent way for students to explore the intersection of technology and agriculture. It not only promotes sustainable practices but also provides valuable learning opportunities in electronics and programming.
