The objective ofthis project was to design a smart wireless sprinkler system to be used in residential and smallbusinesses. A wireless sensor network was designed and used throughout a lawn that tookperiodic moisture measurements and sent the data to the sprinkler control system, so that the unitcan make informed decision about what areas of a lawn need to be watered. The system that wasdesigned can be easily retrofitted into any existing sprinkler system. The top-level view of thesystem for their design is shown in Figure 1.
