Project Area of Specialization Computer ScienceProject Summary

Smart Plants Managment Information System(SPMIS):-

The goal of this project was to create an automatic irrigation system for plants. Plants are beneficial to have indoors. In addition to their air purifying properties, This paper deals with an automatic irrigation system which automatically senses the moisture content of soil and decides whether irrigation is needed or not and how much water is needed for soil. We used a UV sensor for the proper amount of sunlight and a PH sensor for maintaining the Ph value for homegrown plants, We use tempreture sensor for mantaining tempreture or save its value for previous comperision. The final design consisted of a microcontroller (Arduino) which controlled the system, moisture sensor, temperature sensor, Humidity sensor, UV sensor and PH sensor. The project resulted in a system that managed to keep the plant alive. Instead of batteries, solar cells could be used to meet the system's energy needs. The Automated Plant Irrigation system represents our most basic step towards automated farming drought and loss due to irrigation issues.

Project Objectives

OBJECTIVE:

The objective of our project is to design a Smart Plants Management Information System using ph sensor, moisture sensor, temperature sensor and UV sensor

On a larger scale, having an automatic irrigation system can reduce water usage by 73% percent when compared to traditional watering. Automatic plant watering system, which is regarded as one of the most widely used and beneficial automated systems today, assisting people in their daily activities by reducing or completely replacing their effort. This system employs sensor technology, as well as microcontroller and other electronics in order to behave like a switching system that detects soil moisture levels and, if necessary, irrigates the plant. Clay soil is a better choice for home plants because it has a higher water-holding capacity and a good ability to transport water from deeper layers via capillary action. Companies that do not have plants in their offices are expected to have a higher rate of health and discomfort issues among their employees than companies that do have a lot of plants in their buildings. Plants in offices have been shown to improve both air quality and employee health. Twelve symptoms were measured on staff members, including headaches, coughing, dry throat, and dizziness other things showed a decrease by 21% when introducing plants to their work environment. We can also operate our system with the help of the solar energy. Solar panel absorb sunlight and convert into electrical energy with the help the photovoltaic effect. The process only works when the solar panels are illuminated. The energy can be stored and used when needed by using batteries. The best solar cells on the market can generate up to 150 W per square meter in an instant, depending on the system. Wireless sensor network technology has the potential to reveal fine grained, dynamic changes in an outdoor landscape's monitored variables. However, significant challenges must be overcome before this vision can be realised in operational systems.

Project Implementation Method

We will providing 2 vase of flower and apply sensors on them take data save data into database and show graphical charts on frontend. Here is brifly description.

1- Working with physical sensors and other materials:-

We will take vase and apply sensors.

Sensors: Humadity, Soil, Mositure, Tempreture, UV Light, PH, Visiable Light, IR Light.

Humidity Sensor:Soil Moisture Sensor is a simple breakout for measuring the moisture in soil and similar materials. The two large exposed pads function as probes for the sensor, together acting as a variable resistor. The more water that is in the soil means the better the conductivity between the pads will be and will result in a lower resistance, and a higher SIG out.

Tempreture Sensor: A thermistor is a special type of resistor which changes its physical resistance when exposed to changes in temperature.

Light: LDR are light sensitive devices most often used to indicate the presence or absence of light or to measure the light intensity. An LDR can be applied in lightsensitive detector circuits and light-activated and darkactivated switching circuits.

PH Sensor: A pH sensor helps to measure the acidity or alkalinity of the water with a value between 0-14. When the pH value dips below seven, the water starts to become more acidic. Any number above seven equates to more alkaline. Each type of pH sensor works differently to measure the quality of the water. The pH of water can help determine the quality of water. Measuring the pH can also provide indications of pipe corrosion, solids accumulation, and other harmful byproducts.

2- Coding/Programming MicroController:

We will write coding in C++ to comunicate with sensor and get the value of current status and then send it to BackEnd using Rest Api.

3- BackEnd Coding(Asp .Net Core):

We are Using Rest Api to recive or send data or Comunicate with microcontroller, When we recive data we will save it to database we will save all previous data for the result shown on charts or comperision.

4- FrontEnd Coding(Angular):

We will use Angular framework of javascript for front end to show graphicall represention in charts using jquery charting library rest of the designing will be using angular component or angular materials.

Benefits of the Project

This frequently results in plants drying out or being flooded with water. There is also a link between the number of plants in close proximity to a person and their healthy lifestyle. One issue is that the plants must be kept alive in order for them to benefit the person's health. A self-watering system would drastically reduce the amount of time required to keep plants alive, allowing people to have a large number of plants without sacrificing time for care. The system should be able to measure and control the moisture level of a plant’s soil. A moisture sensor was used because it's proven to be an efficient way of determining when a plant needs more water. We used a UV sensor for the proper amount of sunlight and a PH sensor for maintaining the PH value for homegrown plants. The Arduino was linked to a water pump, which transported water from the reservoir to the plant via tubes. The system was evaluated based on how well the soil's moisture level was kept stable and whether it was able to keep the plant healthy.

On a larger scale, having an automatic irrigation system can reduce water usage by 73% percent when compared to traditional watering. Automatic plant watering system, which is regarded as one of the most widely used and beneficial automated systems today
