Design and development of indoor plant watering system using PIC microcontroller: article / Ahmad Manzum Sanusi

Automatic indoor plant watering is applied for indoor plant or trees. This system principle is based on water level sensing technique. The main controller for this project is PIC16F876A. The system can be separated into three parts there are input, controller and output part. The input part is the component that detects the water level in the system. For this project, water from the watering process will act as the switch to the water level sensor to determine the water level for the plant watering. The output part is water pump. If the input part give information/ signal to the controller that the plant ground need to be watering the output device will take action, the water pump will pump the water into watering tube until the water reach the plants or trees. The controller will receive information or signal from input part and will send action information or signal to the output part to do the task needed.
