SMART PLANT MONITORING πΉπΏ AND CONTROL SYSTEM
Smart Garden is a system designed to monitor and automate the irrigation and lighting for plants in a garden using Arduino and various sensors. The system ensures optimal plant health by providing appropriate irrigation and lighting based on environmental conditions. The project is implemented using Arduino C++.

To use this Smart Garden system, you will need the following components:
- Arduino board (e.g., Arduino Uno)
- Sensors (temperature sensor, humidity sensor, soil moisture sensor)
- Actuators (fan, mister, pump)
Follow these steps to set up the project:
- Download and install the Arduino IDE from the official Arduino website.
- Clone or download this project repository.
- Connect the sensors and actuators to the Arduino board according to the project requirements.
- Open the
main.ino
file in the Arduino IDE. - Install the required libraries listed in the
requirements.txt
file using the Arduino Library Manager. - Upload the code to the Arduino board.
- Monitor the serial output to observe the Smart Garden system's behavior and adjust the thresholds or logic as needed.
The Smart Garden system is implemented using an object-oriented approach with separate header and implementation files for the sensor and actuator libraries.
The SensorLibrary
class encapsulates the functionality related to sensors, including initialization and reading sensor values. The ActuatorLibrary
class encapsulates the functionality related to actuators, such as turning on and off specific actuators.
The main.ino
file initializes the sensor and actuator objects, reads sensor values, and performs appropriate actions based on the readings. The irrigation.cpp
and lighting.cpp
files contain additional functionality specific to irrigation and lighting, respectively.
Make sure to adjust the code according to your specific sensor and actuator connections and requirements.
If you encounter any issues or have trouble setting up the Smart Garden system, consider the following steps:
- Double-check the wiring connections between the sensors, actuators, and the Arduino board.
- Ensure that the required libraries listed in the
requirements.txt
file are installed. - Verify that the Arduino board and port are
selected correctly in the Arduino IDE.
- Check the serial monitor for any error messages or unexpected behavior.
If the problem persists, consult the documentation of the sensors, actuators, and libraries used in the project or seek assistance from the Arduino community.
