Here is another interesting hobby circuit built around the popular and inexpensive 555 IC. It is nothing but a water sensor, which you can be configured as a rain alarm, water tank overflow alarm, ...

[Bob] was having trouble keeping up with his water troughs. He had to constantly check them to make sure they weren’t empty, and he always found that the water level was lower than he thought. He ...

The design behind leak sensors is actually pretty cool: essentially, most sensors have two or three metal probes that, when they come in contact with water, detect increased conductivity and set off ...

This water sensor’s use of outlet power is both a curse and a blessing. Where competing smart water sensors have zigged, D-Link has zagged with its DCH-S160 Wi-Fi Water Sensor. The biggest ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...
