Final Project

#_IDEA-1_:)

Hydroponics, the cultivation of plants in nutrient-enriched water, with or without the mechanical support of an inert medium such as sand, gravel, or perlite.

The hydroponics definition states that it is the cultivation of plants in water. It is a subcategory of hydroculture and is a useful technique of growing plants without soil.

Through this technique, roots absorb the nutrients present in water and fulfil their growth requirement. Furthermore, through this method, one can grow plants in liquid, sand or gravel by simply adding some nutrients to it.

In recent years, hydroponics has found application in the field of commercial production and horticulture. Similarly, residents of cities with limited space are using this method to grow fresh plants in their home and surroundings.

I am going to use input device as a moisture sensor, PH sensor, output device as a motor.

3D Modeling

For the final project, I used SolidWorks software for the modeling.

I utilized various sketch commands and features such as extrude, revolve, and pattern commands to create a simple model for my project. This is just an overview of the project; I will be updating the model in the upcoming days to meet my specific needs.

#_Components

1. LEDs --> Blue Colour - High levels of blue light will therefore promote increased metabolism, and by extension accelerate plant growth and development.
2. Water Level Sensor --> For Water Level Detection.
3. Buzzer --> For the indication of the Water Level.
4. Motor --> To rotate the plants in the Pot.
