**Title: Smart Plant Monitoring System**

**Objective: **

Create a simple IoT-based plant monitoring system that measures soil moisture and temperature, and
communicates the data to a mobile device.

**Components: **

1. **Soil Moisture Sensor**

2. **Temperature Sensor**

3. **Microcontroller (e.g., Arduino Nano) **

4. **Bluetooth Module (e.g., HC-05) **

5. **Mobile App (e.g., MIT App Inventor or Blynk) **

**Tasks: **

1. **Sensor Integration: **

- Connect the soil moisture and temperature sensors to the Arduino Nano.

2. **Microcontroller Programming: **

- Program the Arduino Nano to read data from the sensors.

3. **Bluetooth Communication: **

- Integrate the Bluetooth module with the Arduino Nano to establish a wireless communication link.

4. **Mobile App Development: **

- Create a simple mobile app using MIT App Inventor or Blynk to receive and display the sensor data.

5. **User Interface: **

- Design a basic user interface on the mobile app to show real-time soil moisture and temperature.
6. **Alerts (Optional):**

- Implement alerts on the mobile app to notify the user when the soil moisture drops below a certain
threshold.

**Benefits: **

- Learn the basics of sensor interfacing.

- Understand microcontroller programming for data acquisition.

- Gain experience with Bluetooth communication.

- Develop a simple mobile app for data visualization.

- Explore the practical application of IoT in plant monitoring.

This micro project allows you to build a cost-effective plant monitoring system using readily available
components. It provides a hands-on experience in sensor integration, microcontroller programming, and
basic mobile app development, making it suitable for a diploma-level project with limited resources.
