The implementation of internet of things-based control
and monitoring systems, this research involves the use of
hardware and software to control the pH level of water in
ponds [3]. Hardware components include pH sensor,
flowmeter, Arduino, and esp8266 WiFi module. The
software used is Arduino IDE and Blynk. Data is sent over
the internet to the Firebase database. If the pH level of the
water is outside the range of 7.5 to 8.5, the device activates
the pump to regulate the pH level by pumping the
appropriate pH liquid into the pool. The goal is to maintain a Fig 1. Schematic circuit
