Abstract
As we can see in today's world only some devices like PC's and mobiles are connected to internet.Now-a-days world is fully overtaken by the internet and internet of things.Internet is use for basic need of all human beings.The Internet of Things (IOT) is the network of physical objects.It simply means to monitor a physical device or machine or it is inter-networking of physical devices which is embedded with electronics, sensors, software and network connectivity to enable it to achieve greater value and services by exchanging data with the manufacturer IOT permits objects to be sensed or controlled remotely across the network infrastructure.The result improves accuracy, economic benefits, efficiency and reduces intervention of human.In this paper we are going to deal with basic and important concepts of IOT and its scope in upcoming future.This paper studies the need of IOT in day to day life for different applications and gives brief information about IOT.IOT contributes significantly toward revolutionary farming methods.So we are trying to demonstrate IOT in Automatic watering system.Automatic watering system monitors and maintain the approximate moisture content in soil.Node MCU is used as microcontroller to implement the control unit.The set up uses the temperature sensor, moisture sensor and humidity sensor which measure the approximate temperature, moisture and humidity in the soil.This value enables the system to use appropriate quantity of water which avoids over/under irrigation.
