Like this low-power soil sensor project and the custom controller for six soil sensors, [rbaron’s] w-parasite uses a “parasitic capacitive” moisture sensor to determine if it’s time to ...

In a way, the magic of a soil moisture sensor’s functionality boils down to a simple RC circuit. But of course, in practice there is a bit more to it than that. [rbaron] explains exactly how … ...

Features – Smart Soil Moisture Monitoring Dashboard 📡 Real-Time Soil Moisture Monitoring Continuously collects and displays moisture levels using capacitive soil moisture sensors. ⚙️ Automated ...

Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor This is a capacitive soil moisture sensor which runs with a standalone ATmega328P and utilizes the MySensors framework. It can however be adapted to any other framework ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

As a bonus, we also give you the ambient temperature from the internal temperature sensor on the microcontroller, it’s not high precision, maybe good to + or – 2 degrees Celsius.” ...

Recently, 2-frame interdigital fringe-field (ID-FF)-based capacitive sensors have been widely employed for soil moisture measurement. The present challenge with this design is to achieve both ...
