This is an IoT based garden light developed by the researchers and students of the University of Engineering & Management (UEM), Jaipur. These garden lights were initially equipped to switch on or off & change to any color of light from a mobile app from anywhere in the world, & to automatically switch on/off depending on ambient light. Now, as per suggestion by Mr. Mahendra Saxena, President, DBS Group, more functionality is added to it.
Now, as per his suggestion, also moisture sensors have been put up to measure the amount of water in soil, & red color has been tagged for below benchmark moisture & irrigation has been triggered accordingly.
Involved in the project and showing in the picture are Mr. Afaq Ahmad, Research Associate, UEM Jaipur (first from left in the picture) and Mr. Piyush Yadav, student, final year Mechanical Engineering, UEM Jaipur (in the middle of the picture). Also showing in the picture, at the right is Prof. Dr. Biswajoy Chatterjee, Vice-Chancellor, UEM Jaipur.
12 such pieces of garden lights have been fitted all across the UEM JAIPUR campus.
