Story

 

Water level sensor ( Abdullah) :

 

The water level sensor was used to send alerts that indicates if the water level is high, medium, or low, in response to that the servo motor receives this signal as an input to do a programmed action either by opening or closing the valve.

 

Servo motor (Aref) :

 

Temperature Sensor (Bithal ):

 

PH Sensor (Joy): using the water sensor we measure the PH level of the water to insure it is within safe operating levels for irrigation and to insure the good bacteria in the solution do not die from the acidity of the base of the water.

 

Display Interface( Ivy): As shown in the project, the system involves a lot of LEDs. To properly understand what is going on, a Bluetooth module was incorporated. This allows anyone with a Bluetooth-enabled device to connect to the system and see what is happening with water levels, PH, and temperature in real time.

 

Schematics

 

Water level Sensor ( tinkercad Circuit )

 

Ultrasonic sensor was used a replacement since there's not level indicator sensors in tinker cad library

Bluetooth module

 

Arduino

 

The component is used to enable wireless communication between the Arduino board and any Bluetooth-enabled device. It operates on the Bluetooth 2.0 specification and supports both the Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP) and the Bluetooth Master-Slave configuration. It enables the establishment of a reliable and convenient wireless connection between devices.

CODE
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

SoftwareSerial mySerial(10, 11); // RX, TX

char w;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  mySerial.begin(9600);
  delay(1000); //wait to start the device properly
}

void loop() {
  if (mySerial.available()) {
    w = mySerial.read();
    Serial.println(w);  //PC
    delay(10);
    //commands with Serial.println(); show on pc serial monitor
  }

  if (Serial.available()) {
    w = Serial.read();
    mySerial.println(w); //Phone
    delay(10);
    //commands with mySerial.println(); show on the device app
  }

//shown on pc
Serial.println("This is a test run");
Serial.println("Congratulations! Device Connected!");
Serial.println();

//shown on device app
mySerial.println("This is a test run");
mySerial.println("Congratulations! Device Connected!");
mySerial.println();

delay(2000);
}
