Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor
This sensor measures the moisture levels in soil by using capacitive sensing, which is different from the resistive sensing method that other sensors use. It is made of a material that resists corrosion and lasts longer. You can insert it into the soil near your plants and show your friends the real-time data on soil moisture!
This module has a voltage regulator that allows it to work with a voltage range of 3.3 ~ 5.5V. It is suitable for low-voltage MCUs, both 3.3V and 5V. You will need an ADC converter to use it with a Raspberry Pi.
This soil moisture sensor can connect to our 3-pin “Gravity” interface, which you can plug into the Gravity I/O expansion shield.
