The Makeblock mBuild Soil Moisture Sensor is a soil moisture sensing module in the mBuild ecosystem developed by Makeblock. It’s designed for use in projects that require real-world environmental sensing — such as smart gardening, automated irrigation, and other STEAM/IoT applications.
🔧 Key Features
-
🌱 Measures soil moisture levels with outputs in a range of 0–100 (relative moisture value).
-
🧠 Uses a resistive sensing principle — soil with higher moisture conducts electricity better (lower resistance), affecting the output value.
-
📏 Module size: approximately 24 × 72 mm.
-
📊 Range: 0–100, indicating moisture level.
-
📈 Accuracy: ±5%.
-
⚡ Operating current: 14 mA.
-
🔌 Plug-and-play mBuild connector — works with mBuild-compatible boards like CyberPi, mBot2 Shield, etc. for easy integration and programming via mBlock 5.
📍 Typical Uses
-
Monitor soil moisture for smart garden and automated irrigation systems.
-
Integrate into STEAM, robotics, and IoT projects requiring environmental data.
-
Use with controllers (e.g., CyberPi) to trigger actions like automatic watering when moisture drops.
🎓 Ideal For
✔ STEAM/IoT education and experiments
✔ Beginners learning about real-world sensors
✔ Classroom projects involving environmental sensing
💡 Note: The sensor reads a relative moisture index — not exact percentage of water by weight — but it’s ideal for comparative and control tasks in projects.
