[Page Add] [Enhanced Function] "BotanIQ", the AI-powered, solar-driven smart irrigation system for raised garden beds #3235
Description
Overview of "BotanIQ"
We’re building a solar-powered, AI-assisted irrigation system for a small greenhouse in a private garden, initially focused on mint grown in standard potting soil. The goal is to collect environment data, optimize irrigation cycles, and compare conditions under semi-controlled but realistic outdoor use.
Presented by Rudolf-Diesel Technical School in Germany, this project will exhibit at the “Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften” (Long Night of Science) 2025 in Nuremberg. The sharing website is: http://www.botani-q.com/.
This project will require the 3-in-1 EC sensor(Industrial Soil Moisture & Temperature & EC), with RS485 protocol(industrial-level), the corresponding XIAO MCU Board(XIAO ESP32C3) and the RS485 Breakout Board

I think I can complete the assignment, but I need more time?
- The timeframe here is based on our old experience, from people who have done it or something like that.
- However, many projects will take much more time under actual circumstances (including the main language of the contributors receiving the task and the actual creative difficulty).
- You can leave the time you need and a brief reason; we will evaluate the situation accordingly.
