Soil moisture level is depicted in two formats: numerically and visually, with a clever flower pot icon. The display receives information wirelessly as long as the sensor is within 300 feet.

Soil moisture sensors can help farmers save water, by letting them know when their crops actually need to be watered. A new sensor could be particularly helpful, as it incorporates a special ...

The sensor’s moisture element is unique because it works similar to a plant’s root by measuring water tension in its hydrophilic fabric-covered matrix material rather than the surrounding soil.

DUBLIN, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Soil Moisture Sensors Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2020-2025" report has been added to ...

A BBC micro:bit and a moisture sensor will get you and your garden plants communicating. By Hannah Joshua. 10 July 2019 Davis Stock for NewScientist. IN OUR previous 10-week “How to be ...

The sensor is based on an STM32 microcontroller, in this case one specifically optimized for low-power applications. The other low-power key to this build is the small seven-segment e-ink display.

My soil-moisture reading was in the low 700s in soil that had around 30 percent moisture (according to a comparison with a commercial soil-moisture sensor), and 661 in a drier pot.
