| Summary: | This project explains the design of moisture detector with the use of
microcontroller. Theory of resistivity and conductivity principles were implemented in
this project. The metered multi-moisture detector used probes to detect the wetness or
dryness of chosen substances; paddy, com and red beans. The use of microcontroller
was introduced in achieving the desired output. Microcontroller was programmed using
C programming. It converted the voltage drop measured into moisture content (in
percentage) and displayed the value through LCD. This metered multi-moisture detector
is portable and cost effective device. |
