Design and implementation of a modern vertical plant wall with an integrated automated water dripping system for sustainable indoor greenery

REFERANCE : Hydroponic Drip system

This project involves designing a simple automated water drip system using an Arduino, a servo motor, and optional sensors. The servo motor controls the release of water by pinching or unpinching a soft tube at set intervals, creating a controlled drip mechanism. The system can be enhanced with an LED timer to indicate countdowns or integrated with a soil moisture sensor to release water only when necessary

LOGICS

  1. Moisture Sensor Reading:
    1. The moisture sensor reads the soil’s moisture level using the analogRead() function.
    2. If the moisture level is below the moistureThreshold, it triggers the servo to release water.
  2. Servo Operation:
    1. The servo moves to the open position (90°) for dripDuration milliseconds, allowing water to drip.
    2. Then it returns to the closed position (0°).
  3. LED Indicator:
    1. The LED lights up during watering to provide visual feedback.
