ESP32 Automated Irrigation Control System Project - Water Meter Implementation
Dive into the second part of a comprehensive tutorial series on creating an ESP32 Automated Irrigation Control System. Learn how to implement a water meter using a reed switch and magnet combination for pulse generation and measurement. Explore the process of developing a custom library to support the hardware, including functions for version retrieval, interrupt handling, and basic readouts. Discover how to emulate a water meter for easier project development and testing. Follow along as the instructor demonstrates the creation of functions to store and update meter information using SPIFFS file system. Gain insights into practical testing methods, including the use of a small project board with a DC motor and batteries to simulate meter signals. This hands-on tutorial provides valuable knowledge for makers and automation enthusiasts looking to enhance their ESP32 projects with water metering capabilities.
