OBJECTIVE:• To tackle the problems of agricultural sector regarding irrigation

system with available water resources.

• New concepts are being developed to allow agricultural

automation to flourish and deliver its full potential, so we

consider the implication of developing a new single technology

of Automatic plant irrigation system using AT89S52 MCU

An embedded system is a special purpose

computer system designed to perform one or a few

dedicated functions, often with real time

computing constraints.

It is usually embedded as part of a complete

device including hardware and mechanical parts.

POWER SUPPLY UNIT:

AT89S52 Microcontroller:

• The AT89S52 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit

microcontroller with 8K bytes of in-system programmable flash

memory.

• By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU with in-system

programmable flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89S52

is a powerful microcontroller which provides a highly-flexible

and cost-effective solution to many embedded control

applications.

inductor

Moisture Sensors:

• It can be also called as a

soil moisture sensor.

• Soil moisture is highly

variable. Accuracy from a

single site isn't enough to

run an experiment.

AC motor:• An electric motor uses

electrical energy to produce

mechanical energy.

• Electric motors are found in

household appliances such

as fans, refrigerators,

washing machines, pool

pumps, floor vacuums, and

fan-forced ovens.

TRAIC (BT136):

TRIAC, from Triode for Alternating

Current, is a generalized trade name for

an electronic component which can

conduct current in either direction when it is

triggered (turned on), and is formally called

bidirectional triode thyristor or bilateral

triode thyristor.

Liquid crystal display (LCD):

• It is a thin, flat panel used for electronically displayinginformation such as text, images, and movingpictures.

• Its uses include monitors for computers, televisions,instrument panels, and other devices ranging fromaircraft cockpit displays, to every-day consumerdevices such as gaming devices, clocks, watches,calculators, and telephones.

night – day vision.

FUTURE SCOPE:

• The main scope of this project is to make the

irrigation automated.

• With the use of low cost sensors and the simple

circuitry makes this project a low cost product, which

can be bought by a poor farmer.

• This project is best suited for places where water

is scares and to be used in limited quantity.
