INSPIRATION
CONCEPT
Aqua REVIVAL, a smart irrigation system which monitors tank levels via water sensors, activates a pump to draw and filter greywater. This sustainable solution minimizes grid water usage, promoting responsible landscaping. The addition of a soil moisture sensor ensures optimal soil hydration for thriving landscapes.
PSEUDOCODE
This pseudocode activates the DC motor with adjustable speed using a button and potentiometer, displaying button state and motor regulation on the serial monitor.
PROTOTOYPE
Initial testing done for the DC Motor along with a Button input
SCHEMATICS
Circuit Diagram
This circuit utilizes water level and soil moisture sensors to control a DC motor, directing water from a tank to a sustainable landscape. A potentiometer adjusts motor speed, while LEDs indicate soil hydration.
PROCESS
Water Level Sensor:
The water level sensor measures liquid level in a tank, controlling a pump based on the level.The potentiometer adjusts pump speed.
Soil Sensor (YL69):
The soil moisture sensor assesses soil moisture. Actuators which react as follows: Green LED activates with adequate moisture, while the Red LED illuminates with moisture deficit.
12V Water Pump:
The water pump activates according to water level sensor readings. Pump speed is adjusted by a potentiometer, powered externally through a MOSFET module.
