From refrigerators to parking lots in shopping malls, IoT is bringing more and more things into the digital fold every day, which will likely make the IoT technology a multi-trillion dollar industry in the near future.
In this project-based course, you will work with a soil moisture sensor, ESP-8266 WiFi module and an Arduino board to develop a smart irrigation system project that detects the change in moisture level in the soil and controls the flow of water accordingly. You will also develop a Virtuino App to get notifications remotely.
Apart from gaining practical skills on the Internet of Things Technology, by doing this project you will learn about the Arduino Architecture, Arduino Programming, Calibration of Sensors, Virtuino App development etc..
