AUTOMATIC PLANT WATERING SYSTEM CREATED BY: KOOSHA DANESHI, CHAO JIANG, ALASTAIR FRASER
2
PROJECT DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS We wanted to create a system using Arduino to measure the moisture levels of multiple plants and to effeciently deliver water to them.
3
REQUIRED PARTS AND COST Soil Moisture Sensor x4 Mini Water Pump X4 L298 Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver x2 AC/DC Power Adapter 4mm Pipe for Pump x4 Sensor Shield Total Cost: $54.60
4
MOISTURE SENSOR Uses two probes to pass current through the soil and then reads the resistance to get the moisture level. Power: 3.3 V or 5 V Output voltage signal: 0-4.2 V Current: 35 mA
5
ARDUINO AND SHIELD
6
AC/DC ADAPTER Supplies additional current to the driver for the pumps.
7
PUMP DRIVERS Provides up to 2 A each for the two connected pumps Controlled by switching high and low states on a pin on the Arduino
8
PUMPS Draw 1.76 A and between 3 to 9 V
