Goals
This project aims to conduct engineering research and develop various futuristic IoT products and IoT technology solutions. In our first year, we plan to begin with developing an IoT-enabled sensor system for automated smart gardening and precision farming applications. The specific objective is to design and develop an IoT-enabled electronic device equipped with multiple sensors to monitor soil moisture, pH, conductivity, temperature, and light intensity to facilitate automated irrigation control, thus minimizing water waste and maximizing farming yield. Our aim in the next two years is to build the end product, evaluate its performance, produce an off-the-shelf deployable prototype, and seek opportunities for startup commercialization.
