This team of enterprising 7th graders identified a problem with their school's community garden: inconsistent watering leading to plant loss. They designed and implemented a smart irrigation system that monitors soil moisture, weather conditions, and plant health to optimize water usage. Their system reduced water consumption by 40% while improving plant growth. The project has since been adopted by three other schools in the district.
Key Achievements
- ✓Created a network of soil moisture sensors throughout the garden
- ✓Developed a weather-responsive watering schedule algorithm
- ✓Built a solar-powered central control unit
- ✓Implemented a mobile app for remote monitoring and control
