Project Overview
This project aims to develop a robust and efficient IoT-based system for managing water tanks. The system will utilize sensors to monitor water levels, temperature, and quality, providing real-time data and alerts to users.
Key Features
- Real-time Water Level Monitoring: Accurate measurement of water levels in the tank using ultrasonic sensor.
- Remote Access and Control: Enabling users to monitor and control the system from anywhere using blynk cloud.
- Alerts and Notifications: Sending timely notifications for low water levels.
- Data Logging and Analysis: Storing historical data for analysis and trend identification.
Hardware Components
- Microcontroller: ESP 8266
- Sensors:
- Water level sensor ultrasonic HC SR04
- Communication Module: Wifi
- Power Supply: 9v Battery
Software Components
- Firmware: C++, Arduino IDE
- Cloud Platform: Blynk Cloud
Getting Started
- Hardware Setup: Assemble the hardware components according to the provided schematics.
- Firmware Development: Write the firmware code to interface with the sensors, communicate with the cloud, and handle alerts.
- Cloud Integration: Set up the blynk cloud platform to store and analyze data.
- Testing and Deployment: Test the system thoroughly and deploy it to the desired location.
Future Enhancements
- Integration with water utility providers: Sharing data with utilities for demand management and leak detection.
- Predictive maintenance: Using historical data to predict sensor failures and schedule maintenance.
- Energy efficiency: Optimizing water usage and storage to reduce energy consumption.
