Summary: | For decades, water sprinkler systems have been installed in gardens to
replace the chore of manual watering. There are many different types of
sprinkler system out in the horticulture market today. Most of these
systems are deployed to water without the regard of water amount output
and frequencies of watering. Thus, the idea of a smart water sprinkler
system was derived.
This project aims to design an automated sprinkler that is able to water
plants at specific time intervals with a pre-set amount of water.
The project starts off with the conceptual design stage whereby the
target audience and design consideration were defined. A few designs
were conceived, but finally only one design was chosen based on
multiple evaluation criteria.
The detailed design covers all aspects of the final design that was
chosen. This includes the mechanical structure and the electrical
components that work in harmony to achieve the final product.
This final product was then put through a number of tests to prove its
functionality. Finally, this report will cover the future plans and
improvements that can be made to this design. |
