Abstract

The absence of smart detection in the existing system is insufficient for watering the plantation. This brought some problems, as no one knew about the condition of the plantation, and caused overwatering and under-watering problems. Therefore, combining IoT concepts and mobile applications has adapted to make the system a more innovative automated system. Generally, the Internet of Things (IoT) is the connection between networks and devices that can exchange data through the Internet without human intervention. Meanwhile, the mobile application is a software system that runs on a mobile device. Specifically, developing an IoT Smart Watering System (SWS) focuses on building an intelligent watering system that will sense the humidity of the soil and the temperature of the environment using the sensor. Then, the data will be sent to the user’s mobile application using the internet to allow users to view it. The objective of this project is to let the user know about the condition of the plant and smart watering based on the condition. The advantage of this system is that it allows users to automatically monitor the status of the data from mobile phones compared to the existing system. In addition, this system was developed for homeowners, farmers, and students who use Android mobile devices. In this project, the waterfall method was implemented as a software development process to ensure the successful development of the system and meet the user’s requirements. The existence of the IoT Smart Watering System will benefit society by preventing water waste and minimising human intervention. This could save time and enhance the effectiveness of watering the plants. A notification and view data graph feature will be integrated into this system for future work
