Live Microbe Monitoring in Ponds Using Smart Sensors

Freshwater quality is important for delivering public health, sustaining aquatic ecosystems, and maintaining industries such as manufacturing and agriculture. Traditional methods for water quality monitoring, such as manual sampling and analysis, are time-consuming, costly, and ineffective for fighting contamination issues in real time. Delays in contaminant detection may lead to environmental pollution, economic losses, and health threats. To eliminate such challenges, the present project utilizes the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to build an automated real-time water quality monitoring system. The system integrates an array of sensors to sense vital parameters such as temperature, turbidity, and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) to make a comprehensive analysis of water quality. The sensors collect continuous data and transfer them to a cloud platform, which analyzes and saves the data. By providing real-time data and early warning systems, this solution supports water conservation efforts, minimizes health hazards, and ensures compliance with the environmental standards.
