Piezoelectric Power Generation and Smart Irrigation system using Internet of Things

Abstract

Being an agrarian country, Agriculture is the most important occupation for the most of the Indian families and plays a vital role in the development of our country. Water is the most-critical resource for Agriculture, as 90% of India’s groundwater is being used solely in agriculture sector. Irrigation is method to supply water but in many cases there will be lot of water wastage also there is wastage of electricity. So, in this regard to save water, Electricity and time we have proposed project titled Footstep power generation and automatic irrigation system using IoT. The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the agriculture industry and enabling farmers to tackle with enormous challenges they face. The innovative IoT applications address the issues in agriculture and increase the quality, quantity, sustainability and cost effectiveness of agricultural production as well as reduction in resources. In this proposed system we are using sensors like soil moisture sensors which senses the various parameters of the soil and based on soil moisture value land gets automatically irrigated by ON/OFF of the motor. These sensed parameters and motor status will be displayed on user android application also Motor can be controlled from anywhere in world.
