Installing, Programing and Testing Sensors

This book uses the electronic controller "ArduFarmBot" as a basis for learning how to work in both HW and SW, with: a) LCD and OLED type displays; b) LEDs and buttons; c) Activation of pumps and lamps via relays and d) Sensors such as: DHT22 (temperature and relative air humidity), DS18B20 (soil temperature), YL69 (soil moisture) and LDR (luminosity). All key stages of the project are documented in detail through explanatory texts, block diagrams, high-resolution color photos, electrical diagrams using "Fritzing" application, complete codes stored in "GitHub" and "YouTube" videos. Two versions of the electronic controller "ArduFarmBot" are developed in detail in this book. From capture of data coming from a garden, such as air and soil temperature, relative humidity, soil moisture and luminosity, the "ArduFarmBot" helps to control when a crop should receive heat and water. Control will happen automatically, locally and remote via internet.
