Abstract
The combination of IoT (Internet of Things) technology and solar cell technology can be used to ease human work in everyday life. This research will design and build an Internet of Things (IoT)-based automatic plant sprinkler system by utilizing solar cells as electrical energy. The implementation of this system is carried out at the Code Tourism Park in Cokrodiningratan Village, Jetis District, Yogyakarta City. This research was conducted using the waterfall method with systematic stages. Solar panels have succeeded in producing AC electricity with a voltage of 220V so that it can be used to supply electricity to IoT device controllers. The watering mode consists of an automatic mode with a schedule that can be set from a web-based IoT platform and a remote watering mode via the internet. Both watering modes worked well and successfully watered the plants at the study site. For watering a garden with an area of 197.2 m2, the water consumption required per minute is approximately 20 liters. The coverage of watering plants in the Code Tourism Park is 197.2 m2. At the watering location, 15 sprinkler points are installed, so 1 sprinkler point can cover an area of approximately 13.15 m2.
