Web based water turbidity monitoring and automated filtration system: IoT application in water management

Water supplied to residential areas is prone to contaminants due to pipe residues and silt, and therefore resulted in cloudiness, unfavorable taste, and odor in water. Turbidity, a measure of water cloudiness, is one of the important factors for assessing water quality. This paper proposes a low-cos...

This paper proposes a low-cost turbidity system based on a light detection unit to measure the cloudiness in water.
