Week 15 : FYP2 Chapter 5 The Conclusion



In conclusion, a smart watering plant system or usually called automatic irrigation system will build our life easier and advantageous. Smart watering plant system are the fortune development for home garden. This can be as a result of the program that has been setup is a lot of appropriate for small home garden. Nowadays, Internet in Malaysia becomes the most platform for complimentary discussion and communication between them. 81.8% of every social unit in Malaysia buy the fastened broadband. Since this project are using internet, individuals will take advantages of it and applied to the project.
            Internet of Things (IoT) is main feature in this project. This project have 2 type of function which  is automatic and manual. When the system running, a soil moisture sensor and DHT22 (temperature and humidity sensor)will collect data and transfer mainboard NodeMCU ESP8266 and will display monitoring data on Blynk apps at smartphone. A user don’t worries anymoreto plant their plant to make sure plant get enough content water and idea temperature also surrounding air.
            For automatic, when the sensor detect soil content is dry and upper than moisture threshold was set the relay will triggered and automatic turn ON the motor pump. After soil moisture enough for plant the motor pump will automatic turn OFF. During the automatic system running, notification email will be send to user and the user can monitoring data on Blynk apps at smartphone.
            For manual, only used for certain time for example if the user plant the type species what need more water ,low temperature and high humidity like tomato and strawberry. So for this case only the user will run with manually. By pressing the push button manual on Blynk apps, relay module directly triggered and will turn ON the motor pump. A user can control manual from long distance but have a limit range of connection. 
            Auto backup power supply also with one main system in this project. Basically the normal system using a grid supply 240 volts to running the system. So when black out happen a relay will automatic triggered and switch to solar energy supply. At morning until afternoon around 10am-3pm the process charging happen when the solar panel will absorb a heat of sunlight and generate an electrical energy. An electrical energy was generate from solar panel will be store at battery. The charger controller has been connect between solar panel and battery. Main function of charger controller is to stabilize the current. If current not stable it will cause/blow the load. Another function is to cut off the current when battery is full. If battery was full it not charging anymore because over load current will be transfer to ground.
            Automatic plant watering system provided a low cost feature and portable that will attract many people to look and take advantages to install at their home. This project will provided a user can be saving more water and reduce wastages of water from over irrigation plant. A user no need more to watering their plant. It is also provide saving of bill electricity by install solar energy system and can be backup power supply when blackout happen. Finally, this project has successfully function and has been achieved the main objective on this project.
