This Project is Created By Scott Fischer Hi, this is a small personal project I made for my bonsai garden. It utilizes a moisture sensor and dispenses water using a brushless motor. I setup the pi pico to sleep until an interrupt signal from the moisture sensors. On interruption I used a function that looked for false positives from the sensor, then on pure positives it run the motor by activating a GPIO pin that is connected to the base of the transistor. The motor runs for minimum of 2 seconds or runs until the sensor deems there is enough moisture. The pi pico then returns to sleep. Hardware: - Raspberry Pi Pico - 3V Mini Water Pump (Brushless) - Soil Moisture Sensor - 2N2222 Transistor (1 per plant) Materials: - Bonsai Saplings - Pots and Soil - Plywood or planter box material - PVC Hose Tube - Water Container (Used Tupperware) Tools: - Drill - Jigsaw if cutting wood - Glue - Motivation Software: - Micropython
