Automation is playing a wideband role in today’s technology. This can be an automatic detection system, control unit and many others. The kit presented here waters your plants regularly when you are out for vocation. The circuit comprises sensor parts built using op-amp IC LM324. Op-amp’s are configured here as a comparator. Two stiff copper wires are inserted in the soil to sense the whether the Soil is wet or dry.
The Microcontroller was used to control the whole system it monitors the sensors and when more than two sensors sense the dry condition then the microcontroller will switch on the motor and it will switch off the motor when all the sensors are in wet. The microcontroller does the above job it receives the signals from the sensors, and this signals operated under the control of software which is stored in ROM.
There is sensing probes installed into the soil. These probes will sense the content of water in the soil. The data sensed is converted in to digital format using Op-Amp as a comparator. This data is sensed by the controller to check the soil condition and display it on the LCD and also control the pump motor via relay and relay driver.
