Automatic Plant Watering System: Created By: Koosha Daneshi, Chao Jiang, Alastair Fraser

The document describes an automatic plant watering system created using an Arduino that measures soil moisture levels of multiple plants using sensors and efficiently delivers water to them using small water pumps. The system requires soil moisture sensors, mini water pumps, an L298 dual motor driver, power supply, tubing, and a sensor shield. The total cost of parts is $54.60.

AUTOMATIC PLANT

WATERING SYSTEM
CREATED BY: KOOSHA DANESHI, CHAO JIANG, ALASTAIR FRASER
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.
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
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
ARDUINO AND SHIELD
AC/DC ADAPTER

• Supplies additional current to the driver for the


pumps.
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
PUMPS

• Draw 1.76 A and between 3 to 9 V
