Water-saving irrigation by measuring soil moisture

The MIYO Sensor S2 is a capacitive soil moisture sensor that measures the soil moisture in the center of the root zone, at a depth of about 10 cm. Due to the capacitive measurement technology, the Sensor is durable and wear-free. The power supply is ensured by the built-in solar panel.
