🚀 Overview

SyncFloraPot isn't just a smart pot, it's a complete monitoring solution. It tracks soil moisture, ambient temperature, and light levels, allowing users to interact with their plants through a dedicated mobile interface.

Key Features

  • Real-time Data: Live sensor feedback via MQTT/WebSockets.
  • Automated Irrigation: Smart watering logic based on soil moisture thresholds.
  • Cross-Platform Control: Monitor your plants from anywhere using the mobile app.

🛠 Technical Stack & Architecture

📁 Firmware

  • Hardware: ESP32 Microcontroller.
  • Framework: ESP-IDF.
  • Sensors: Capacitive soil moisture sensor, DHT22 (Temp/Hum), Light intensity sensor.
  • Communication: Wi-Fi, MQTT protocol.

📁 Client

  • Framework: React Native / Expo.
  • Features: Real-time dashboards, push notifications for low water levels, and manual override controls.

📁 Backend

  • Environment: Node.js.
  • Database: MongoDB/PostgreSQL for historical data logging.
  • Communication: Integrated MQTT Broker for hardware-to-cloud messaging.

Questions

How big is the SyncFloraPot PCB PCB?

It measures 70 × 30 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the SyncFloraPot PCB use?

21 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the SyncFloraPot PCB KiCad files?

From the AureleJ/SyncFloraPot repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/SyncFloraPot_PCB.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/SyncFloraPot_PCB.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the SyncFloraPot PCB design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask AureleJ before reusing the design.
