Low Cost Irrigation System for Domestic Crops Based on Arduino Uno and LabView

Abstract

This research stems from the problematic present in many places in the World and more specifically where the members of this work lives: Tamaulipas (in the North of Mexico), it is one of the most important agricultural area in the country, but a serious problem in the region are the high temperatures around 40-45 Celsius degrees and the long periods of drought due to lack of rain [1], which is why a low-cost irrigation system for domestic crops based on rainwater storage is proposed using Arduino Uno as a control device for the electronic driver´s with the LabView as monitoring platform
