Raspberry Pi based Automatic Plant Watering System

Abstract

The objective of this project is to develop an electronic device that facilitates automatic watering of field, whenever the moisture level drops below a certain value. The soil moisture sensor integrated with the Raspberry Pi checks for the moisture level in the soil continuously and sends the value to the microcontroller. You can program the Raspberry Pi to automatically switch ON the water pump whenever there is a low moisture content. Raspberry Pi will then send the data collected to the cloud for storage and analysis through WiFi communication. The data includes the irrigation time period, variation in the moisture level etc. A user can simply track all the data real-time through an IoT based Android App.
