What it is used for
Small-zone smart irrigation with moisture monitoring and automated watering. Planned contents: ESP32 and sensor interface, two capacitive moisture probes, small pump and driver, protected power supply, tubing, fittings and enclosure.
Prototype an automated response to a sensor input, such as moving a mechanism, signaling a state, or controlling a small low-voltage load.
Projects and applications
Examples include a moisture-triggered watering demonstration, motion alert, timed indicator, or joystick-controlled mechanism. Confirm that the controller, sensor, switching stage, and load all match before assembly.
Before choosing it, write down the project goal, expected environment, operating voltage, current demand, physical dimensions, required controller or driver, and any software or accessories needed.
Getting started
Map the signal and power path before building: sensor or control input, controller, driver or switching stage, load, and power source. Verify electrical ratings, fail-safe behavior, enclosure, and the effect of a disconnected sensor.

What to check before use
- Use a driver or relay rated for the load; never route a motor or high-current device through a GPIO pin.
- Keep mains voltage out of hobby prototype wiring; use qualified professionals for mains installations.
- Test failure cases and provide a manual stop or disconnect before operating moving or powered loads.
Specifications and package contents can vary by model or supplier batch. Confirm the exact variant, datasheet, wiring diagram, and manufacturer instructions supplied with your item. If a rating or pinout is unclear, ask a qualified instructor or technician before powering it.
