Automated water tank filtration system using LDR sensor

In this paper, we present the development of an automated water tank filtration system together with the study on water turbidity using light dependent resistor (LDR) as the sensing unit. The system comprises of a microcontroller (Arduino Uno), a micropump, a sensing unit and a water filter. The...
