Abstract
Projects and technologies related to irrigation have been sought more frequently due to the continued need for irrigation of gardens, lawns and plantations. This project aims to develop an automated irrigation system, efficient, and low-cost operational, decreasing the use of energy and water, for residential gardens. The system has a mesh of sensors that measures soil moisture, verifies the presence of rain, the time programmed to irrigate and temperature, so that these parameters the Arduino turn on / turn off a pump, resulting in irrigation. For this, the techniques of fluid mechanics were used, considering the fluid along the water hoses, tubes, pipes, controlling the flow, and the amount of water needed. The project was satisfactory, achieved the objectives, generating water saving, energy and labor reduction.
