What Does It Do?
Despite a few last-minute adjustments, the core features we committed to are successfully implemented and running smoothly.
Here’s what the prototype can currently do:
-
Read multiple sensors:
- Soil humidity
- Soil nutrients (NPK)
- Air temperature and humidity
-
Automate irrigation:
- Controlled water intake into the mixing tank
- Real-time moisture monitoring
- Intelligent valve and pump operation
-
Nutrient mixing:
- 4 nutrient dispensers (instead of 5 initially planned)
- Automated mixing system using a dedicated motor
-
Send data to the WebApp:
- All sensor data is transmitted to our custom dashboard
- Users can view charts, alerts, and sensor status from any device
What’s Left? The only missing feature is data logging to an SD card, which we decided to omit for this version, since cloud syncing to the WebApp is fully functional and sufficient for most users.
