Description
This research presents a Smart Garden System that leverages the capabilities of the Arduino microcontroller, IoT technology, and a multi-sensor suite for intelligent and efficient garden management. The system is designed to cater to the unique needs of plants by utilizing data from moisture, temperature, humidity, and LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensors. Based on predefined threshold values, the system autonomously controls the water pump and light bulb, ensuring precise and optimized care for the garden. The system's core hardware comprises an Arduino microcontroller board, acting as the central hub for sensor integration and actuator control. One of the system's highlights is its automated irrigation functionality. By analyzing soil moisture levels, the system triggers watering actions precisely when needed, effectively reducing water wastage and promoting water-efficient gardening. Moreover, user feedback indicates a notable decrease in manual labor required for garden upkeep. This project represents a significant step towards sustainable and intelligent gardening practices by harnessing the power of Arduino Uno and IoT technologies. As smart agriculture gains traction worldwide, the Smart Garden System's adaptability and potential for scalability make it a valuable contribution to the realm of connected green technologies. Furthermore, the Smart Garden System utilizes an LDR sensor to gauge natural light intensity. By continuously monitoring light levels, the system can supplement natural light with the light bulb, ensuring plants receive the appropriate amount of light during darker periods or inclement weather while conserving energy when sufficient natural light is available.
