IOT-based irrigation system / Arysha Mazwa Rusydena Amir Abdullah

This paper introduces an economical and automated smart irrigation system for farms. The objective of this study is to develop a Wi-Fi-based irrigation system controlled by an Arduino board. The proposed system utilizes solar powered system, water level monitoring, and sensors. Based on the water level, the system regulates the irrigation process. When the water level falls below a set threshold, the ultrasonic sensor sends a signal to the Arduino board, triggering a notification via an IoT platform and activating the water pump. In comparison to other systems, this solution offers superior efficiency at a lower cost. The Arduino board collects data from the sensors and links it to the cloud. A key advantage of this system is that farm owners can remotely monitor their farms using their mobile phones. The project's primary goal is to enhance agriculture through automation and IoT technology.
