PotAI is a smart pot system that:
- Analyzes multiple inputs such as:
- Plant type
- Soil moisture
- Air temperature and humidity
- Light intensity
- Calculates the optimal amount of water (in milliliters) for the plant
- Automatically waters the plant using a water pump
- Continuously monitors plant conditions and only waters again when needed
- Provides a user-friendly interface to:
- Visualize real-time data
- Manage multiple plants or pots (multi-plant support)
- Data Collection: Sensors gather environmental data.
- Intelligent Processing: An AI model determines the plant’s water needs based on current conditions.
- Irrigation: A water pump dispenses the exact amount of water required.
- Visualization: A visual interface shows all relevant metrics to the user in real time.
- Multiple Plants: The system supports managing several plants at once.
- 🌡️ Real-time monitoring of temperature, humidity, and light
- 🌱 Support for different plant species with tailored care
- 💧 Smart irrigation algorithm that minimizes water usage
- 📊 Mobile dashboard for live plant status and control
- 🔁 Automated irrigation cycles with fail-safe logic
- 🪴 Multi-pot scalability for home or small garden setups
- ESP32 (Microcontroller for IoT integration)
- Soil Moisture Sensor, DHT Sensor, Light Sensor
- AI Model for water requirement prediction
- Water Pump controlled via relay
- Frontend: (HTML, CSS, JS, Bootstrap)
- Backend: (Django, PostgreSQL)
PotAI contributes to SDG 6 – Clean Water and Sanitation and SDG 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production by optimizing water usage in everyday gardening.
