Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of an automated water irrigation system aimed at optimizing plant care through precision moisture monitoring and controlled water delivery. The system uses a capacitive soil moisture sensor, an ADC (analog-to-digital converter), and a relay-driven water pump to ensure plants receive adequate hydration based on real-time data. In addition, this work aims to build on existing applications for Raspberry Pi (4B) and Arduino-based automatic irrigation systems by integrating advanced calibration methods, employing optimized algorithms, and introducing new technologies to further enhance overall system efficiency and reliability.
