Short Summary

This paper details the design, development, and testing of an autonomous Internet of Things (IoT) system for automatic plant irrigation, aiming to reduce manual labor and optimize water usage for enhanced agricultural yield.

Objective

• To design, develop, and test an autonomous IoT system for automatic plant irrigation to relieve users of strenuous manual watering tasks and ensure efficient water management for proper plant growth.

Study Configuration

• Spatial Scale: Individual plants or small-scale agricultural settings.
• Temporal Scale: Design, development, and testing of a system intended for continuous, long-term automatic operation.

Methodology and Data

• Models used: Design and development of a smart IoT system incorporating sensors, actuators, and control logic for autonomous irrigation.
• Data sources: Sensor data (e.g., soil moisture) for determining plant water needs.

Main Results

• An autonomous IoT system for automatic plant irrigation was successfully designed, developed, and tested.
• The system effectively automates watering tasks, thereby reducing the physical effort required from users.
• It facilitates efficient water management by supplying plants with the precise amount of water needed for optimal growth.

Contributions

• Offers a practical, autonomous IoT solution to mitigate the inefficiencies and labor intensity associated with traditional manual irrigation methods.
• Provides a system designed for efficient water management, contributing to increased agricultural yield and reduced water waste.

Funding

• Not specified in the provided paper text.
