IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering (IOSR-JCE)Summary: In this research, a new Arduino-based system is designed capable ofautomatically monitoringand controlling
liquid levels in a tank. The level of liquid in a tank is detected using the ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04 and is
interfaced with the Arduino Nano board using the Atmega328 microcontroller, and ESP32 Wi-Fi module. It can
measure any type of liquid as we use an ultrasonic sensor. The Arduino receives the level information from the
sensors and tracks the liquid level with predefined level indicators. The Bluetooth module receives the command
from Arduino and the command will be transferred to various registered mobile phones in the
system.Experimental and simulation results demonstrate the flexibility and practical applicability of the
solution. Furthermore, this system reduces the high level of human supervision as it enables remote monitoring
and control. This system is inexpensive, and easy to build, install, and maintain. The poor internet signal
network was observed to affect the real-time monitoring and automation of the system control through delays in
system responses to commands. However, the average recorded response time of the system is 40 s, and it could
be less in the situation of good internet network services.
