A new Kickstarter campaign has been launched this week by Richard Seymour to raise the funds he requires to create a NB-IoT BLE Gateway and Soil Sensor. Using an Arduino shield extension board ...

Plant-related posts are growing in popularity on Gadget Master, when regularly watered with attention… so hopefully this Arduino-based system to monitor soil conditions will be of interest. It’s the ...

It’s not infrequent that we see the combination of moisture sensors and water pumps to automate plant maintenance. Each one has a unique take on the idea, though, and solves problems in ways that ...

Capacitive sensing isn't limited to your smartphone. In fact, you can use contact with human skin (or any other conductive surface) to trigger almost any circuit. And the Touch Board from Bare ...
