An interdisciplinary project at Virginia Tech IDPro.
Hydroponics replaces soil with nutrient-rich water, saving resources but often requiring frequent manual monitoring. Our project automates this process with sensors, feedback control, and cloud connectivity.
-
Automated monitoring of pH, TDS, and water levels
-
Integrated Arduino system controlling pumps via relays
-
Real-time data display on LCD
-
Cloud upload for remote monitoring
Water Level Sensor – tracks reservoir water level
pH Sensor – monitors acidity/alkalinity of the solution
TDS Sensor – measures nutrient concentration
Arduino for control and data processing
Relays for pump control
LCD Display for local feedback
Cloud Integration for remote access
Developed as part of Virginia Tech IDPro – AutoPlant Project.
