Smart Watering System for Terrace Garden Using LabVIEW

The objective of this work is to create a prototype that enables continuous control of soil moisture levels, along with monitoring temperature, pH, and potentially harmful gases such as CO

. The ultimate goal is to optimize plant growth by effectively managing irrigation resources. By maintaining optimal soil moisture levels and monitoring environmental factors, the prototype aims to achieve maximum plant growth while making efficient use of available irrigation resources. The monitoring software Lab VIEW has been used, and the sensor data will be available online. Given that water is a need for plant existence, it must not be used excessively. It is possible to program the Arduino Uno to examine some signals from sensors, like moisture and rainfall. LabVIEW can be used to regulate and monitor the irrigation of water to plants, and an IoT module can be used to display the soil moisture levels and gases continually on a webpage. The proposed system has various sensors (soil moisture, temperature, pH, and harmful gases) for monitoring the garden plants. Controlling the water supply and keeping an eye on the plants are the key goals of this work which is envisioned through LabView software, where the interfacing between prototype and monitoring environment has been enabled through it. The experimental results shows that the proposed system for garden monitoring is best suitable and economic and accurate in terms of monitoring.
