Project Summary

A smart irrigation system which is cost effective and a middle class farmer use it in farm field. Today we are living in 21st century where automation is playing important role in human life. Automation allows us to control appliances automatic control. It not only provide comfort but also reduce energy, efficiency and time saving. Today loan are use automation and control machine which is high in cost and not suitable for using in a field. So here we also design a smart irrigation technology in low cost which is usable by Indian farmers. The objectives of this paper were to control the water motor automatically and select the direction of the flow of water in pipe with the help of soil moisture sensor. Finally send the information (operation of the motor and direction of water) of the farm field to the mobile message and g-mail account of the user. Keywords—Soil moisture sensor, Electromagnetic pump, Arduino, water level sensor, Display, Bluetooth module.

Project Objectives

Aim is to develop a bluetooth controlled smart irrigation systemto provide irrigation system which is automatic for the plants which help in saving water and money. The main objective is to apply the system for improvement of health of the soil and hence the plant via multiple sensors.

Project Implementation Method

a irrigation system prototypes includes sensor node and control node. The sensor node is deployed in irrigation field for sensing soil moisture value and the sensed data is sent to controller node.On receiving sensor value the controller node checks it with required soil moisture value. When soil moisture in irrigation field is not up to the required level then the motor is switched on to irrigate associated agriculture field and alert message is send to registered mobile phone. The experimental results show that the prototype is capable for automatic controlling the experimental results show that the prototype is capable for automatic controlling of irrigation motor based on the feedback of soil moisture sensor. This system is used in a remote area and there are various benefits for the farmers. By using the  automatic  irrigation   system   it  optimizes  the  usage  of  water  by  reducing  wastage and reduce the human intervention for farmers. It saves energy also as it automatic controlling the system. So there are the system is OFF when the field is wet and automatically start when the field id dry. It is implemented in all type of irrigation system (channel, sprinkler, drip). And we present also less number of sensor nodes to use in a large area of field so the cost of the system also decrease. And power consumption of the wireless network devices are also less and the system perform a long time function

Benefits of the Project

This project proposed an embedded system for automatic control of irrigation. This project has wireless sensor network for real-time sensing and control of an irrigation system. This system provides uniform and required level of water for the agricultural farm and it avoids water wastage. These have real time sensing and control of an irrigation system. When the condition of water in the agricultural farm, Lawns and gardens is abnormal then the system automatically switches ON the motor through the message we have forwarded to the system. When the water level reaches normal level the motor automatically switch OFF. In this project we are interfacing microcontroller through humidity sensor and also interfacing to GND external GND. In this we set specified values of temperature, humidity and the conditioned is uniformly monitored by the application.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

• Android platform will be used for development.
• Target platform will also be android users or Android OS.
• The programming language will be JAVA.
• Best existing tool is Android studio but also there is option for Eclipse for android development, but we will user latest version of Android Studio because its best suited and specially build for android development.  
• The size of the development effort will be great because high skills are required for this project.  
• Budget will maybe needed for designing purposes.
• Time: more time would be better.

• We will be using Core i5 for Development.

  And application will run on Oreo OS minimum, KitKat OS will be latest. 512MB of RAM will must be needed.
