Projects
Set N' Soak — Smart Irrigation Controller
Patent PendingMultidisciplinary Senior Design Project · 6 months · Industry-sponsored
Led firmware implementation and contributed to system architecture for a battery-powered, wireless six-port drip irrigation controller. The project expanded on a sponsor-proposed concept into a functional embedded prototype integrating hardware, firmware, and mobile control.
My Contributions
- Implemented firmware on ESP32-C6 using ESP-IDF (FreeRTOS)
- Designed per-port volumetric scheduling logic (0–4 gallons)
- Implemented pressure-triggered wake behavior (≥10 PSI threshold)
- Developed custom Zigbee2MQTT integration for wireless communication
- Integrated latching solenoid drivers (DRV8833 H-bridge)
- Built a React Native mobile application for configuration and diagnostics
- Contributed to electrical subsystem design and full-system integration
The prototype demonstrated independent valve control, low-power operation, and wireless configuration via an MQTT → Zigbee messaging pipeline.
