Project Title: Plant Monitoring and Irrigation System Overview: This system is based on the ESP32-S3 and is designed to manage irrigation for a multi-floor building. Key Features: Multi-Floor Operation: The system controls three separate floors. Each floor's irrigation can be managed independently. Irrigation and Pump Control: Each floor uses a solenoid valve to regulate water flow. The solenoid valves are operated via MOSFETs. A relay engages an AC water pump when a MOSFET triggers a solenoid valve. Hardware Interconnects: Screw Terminal connectors are added for connecting the solenoid valves and the motor pump. A DC Jack is included to supply power to the system. User Interface & Connectivity: Two JST connectors are provided for integrating an OLED display, a rotary encoder, and a pushbutton. Future enhancements may include the addition of soil moisture sensors. Remote Control: The system is designed for future integration with Blynk IoT. Blynk IoT will offer both manual control and timer-based irrigation modes for each floor.
