Fear of Overwatering or Underwatering? Solve it with Autowater

In today's fast-paced world, people often lack the time to water and monitor their plants regularly. However, ensuring plants receive sufficient water is essential for their growth and health. To address this challenge while promoting environmental sustainability, we present the Auto Waterer, an innovative, eco-friendly watering system designed using recyclable materials. The Auto Waterer operates without the need for electricity or constant human supervision, embodying the principles of the "Go Green" concept. Today, automatic watering systems with automated features that depend on direct electricity or renewable energy such as solar energy conversion have been developed. However, most of them are highly priced to get and install. Alternatively, auto waterer using rainwater is more eco-friendly. Therefore, the proposed Auto Waterer was an initiative to overcome this problem. Leveraging the principles of physics, specifically the Law of Gravity, the system utilizes collected rainwater stored in a tank. Gravity enables the water to flow efficiently to the plants. A specially designed cap with an adjustable nozzle ensures precise control over the water flow, allowing for an ideal drip rate. In this innovation, two designs of Auto Waterer were developed with different structures and functions each. Design A was built with three drains that function to collect and flow rainwater into the auto waterer tank. In contrast, Design B consists of two water tanks that help to store more rainwater. This innovation eliminates concerns about overwatering or underwatering, offering a reliable and sustainable solution for plant care. The Auto Waterer not only simplifies plant maintenance but also contributes to conserving natural resources and protecting Mother Earth. Lastly, this innovation was proposed to benefit the agriculture industry.

Abstract

In today's fast-paced world, people often lack the time to water and monitor their plants regularly. However, ensuring plants receive sufficient water is essential for their growth and health. To address this challenge while promoting environmental sustainability, we present the Auto Waterer, an innovative, eco-friendly watering system designed using recyclable materials. The Auto Waterer operates without the need for electricity or constant human supervision, embodying the principles of the "Go Green" concept. Today, automatic watering systems with automated features that depend on direct electricity or renewable energy such as solar energy conversion have been developed. However, most of them are highly priced to get and install. Alternatively, auto waterer using rainwater is more eco-friendly. Therefore, the proposed Auto Waterer was an initiative to overcome this problem. Leveraging the principles of physics, specifically the Law of Gravity, the system utilizes collected rainwater stored in a tank. Gravity enables the water to flow efficiently to the plants. A specially designed cap with an adjustable nozzle ensures precise control over the water flow, allowing for an ideal drip rate. In this innovation, two designs of Auto Waterer were developed with different structures and functions each. Design A was built with three drains that function to collect and flow rainwater into the auto waterer tank. In contrast, Design B consists of two water tanks that help to store more rainwater. This innovation eliminates concerns about overwatering or underwatering, offering a reliable and sustainable solution for plant care. The Auto Waterer not only simplifies plant maintenance but also contributes to conserving natural resources and protecting Mother Earth. Lastly, this innovation was proposed to benefit the agriculture industry.
