This kit lets you build a reliable flood detector that automatically triggers a water pump when water is sensed, and simultaneously sends an SMS alert via the SIM800L GSM module. It's a complete home automation solution with immediate real-world utility — and you’ll learn core concepts of sensor integration, relay control, and GSM communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA working embedded system that sits on the floor: when the water sensor probes detect moisture, the Arduino turns on a relay to activate an external pump, and sends an SMS to your phone.
