Validation and Revision

On the beginning of the study, Arduino-based control irrigation system was intended to

implement due to its widely used open source microcontroller functions that can be programmed

for a specific task. In the later part, it is decided to change the microcontroller into ESP8266 since

it is already Wi-Fi enable and suitable for the system as it also accommodates in the automation

field. In comparison, ESP8266 is much smaller than Arduino UNO and also best fit the function

for the study.

By the recommendation of our thesis adviser, we pursue to use the Cayenne application.

Unfortunately, as we research and found out that the Cayenne has limited access to some features

specifically for the cloud storage of data and lack of function to display graph for the needed data

like the soil moisture content, temperature, and humidity sensor. Hence, we decided to use public

IP address server because it is more convenient and suitable for the system as it has the features of

cayenne application lacks.

Evaluation

After the testing and revision process of the system, the researcher must analyze and

evaluate the data on the system. If the gathered data of the researcher will meet its desired

objectives, its efficiency and the effectiveness in
