This project was one that I had to make for the Computer Architecture / Embedded Systems course. It is built entirely on a single Arduino and one .ino program. The complete list of items is as follows:
- 1x Soldering Iron Amazon
- 1x Solder flux Amazon
- 1x Solder spool
- 1x Solder tip cleaner sponge Amazon
- 1x Eye protection glasses
- 1x 3M P100 Respirator Facemask Amazon
- 1x Arduino Uno R3 Arduino store
- 1x Arduino Uno R3 Prototype Shield Kit Adafruit store
- 1x Regular size breadboard Adafruit Store
- 1x Mini size breadboard Adafruit store
- 1x Bunch of male-male Jumper wires; It's good to have extras. Adafruit store
- 1x Battery pack Adafruit store
- 1x 9V battery, Alkaline is recommended Amazon store
- 1x DHT20 temperature and humidity sensor Sparkfun store
- 1x Capacitive soil moisture sensor Amazon
- 1x SSD1306 128x64 OLED LCD Screen [Not Found]
- 12V Power Supply
- 5V Relay Amazon
- 12V Pump Amazon
- Vinyl tube
- Flower pot Amazon
- Soil Amazon
- Water source: A half or full gallon bottle recommended
It is also recommended that you know some basic electricity, soldering, programming, and an idea of Arduino connections.
- Open the Arduino IDE
- Verify/Compile the FSI.ino program
- Upload the program to the correct board!
- You may need to press the RST (Reset) button on the board to activate the LCD screen.
