Project Luntian

A Micro-Forest Guardian For Mango Seedling Protection And Monitoring

  • Developed an autonomous, off-grid embedded system (ESP32-based) to reduce seedling mortality in mango reforestation by automating irrigation and localized pest/intrusion deterrence.
  • Integrated a capacitive soil moisture sensor and relay-controlled water pump for threshold-based watering; used a PIR motion sensor with a buzzer and LED to scare animals.
  • Implemented scheduled UV-light electric bug zapper to mitigate nocturnal flying pests near seedlings.
  • Designed a self‑sustaining power system using a rechargeable battery and DC–DC converter, enabling deployment in areas without grid electricity.
