Description

Humancomputer interaction (HCI) is an acquainted field of study concentrating on the design of computer innovation and, specifically, the interaction between computers and humans. While at first about computers, HCI has since extended to cover practically all types of data innovation design. Agriculture uses most of the natural resources, and the use of these natural resources will increase. In irrigation system, depending upon the moisture of the soil, water is provided to the plant. Two things are very important, first to get information about the humidity and temperature of the soil and second to measure the soil moisture. The Bluetooth module is added in the system so the water can be controlled through the mobile device. A solar tracking system is used to track the solar rays and convert them into electricity for pumping of water for irrigation purposes. There is a motor and two solenoid valves which control the water supply, according to the information obtained from the sensors which are placed. In a solar tracking system, LDRs are used as the main light sensors. The sensors are used to sense the soil moisture, temperature, and humidity, and if the moisture content is very low, then the motor is automatically switched on and will be turned off after getting the required water to the soil. For this, there is a GSM that is used to send the notification to the farmers. This chapter deals with the process of implementing an IoT-based model for smart irrigation and sun tracking solar panel for electricity to reduce human efforts. 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
