Project Overview

The University Hall Smart Clock Project is a pilot program to determine if the technology can reduce our usage and cost of water. A smart clock connects via the internet to weather stations in order to utilize current weather conditions in controlling the irrigation system. It can auto-adjust when there is wind or rain to avoid wasting water during these times. Smart clocks have the ability to shut down and adjust watering times automatically based off weather data that is gathered every 60 seconds.
