Innovative methods for watering plants have been developed as a result of the growing demand for efficient and automated systems in agriculture. The design of a hybrid sprinkler, an IoT-powered robot created specifically for effective and precise plant irrigation, is presented in this study. The suggested system enables autonomous operation and intelligent control by fusing the benefits of conventional sprinklers with those of IoT technology. To continuously monitor the environmental conditions, the hybrid sprinkler integrates a variety of sensors, including soil moisture sensors, temperature sensors, and humidity sensors. A central control unit receives this real-time data and uses sophisticated algorithms to establish the best watering schedule for each plant depending on its individual needs. The hybrid sprinkler's design prioritizes sustainability and energy economy. The robot has a rechargeable battery system, and to increase battery life, it uses energy-saving features like sleep modes and sophisticated power management. In a variety of agricultural and horticultural applications, this system assures optimal watering practises, conserves resources, and fosters healthy plant growth by fusing IoT technology, cutting-edge sensors, precision spraying mechanisms, and remote control capabilities.
