Allows user to override system or set personal preference through app interface.

Background

• There are already smart sprinkler systems on the market, and the price is around 250 dollars before installation.

• We will make a cheaper more efficient system.

Goals

• We are going to learn to use many different sensors, learn about automation, and also learn to integrate these factors into a stand alone stable system.

• We will also learn android app development to create a user interface.

Thank you!
