Automated hydration.
Two watering branches share one reservoir. A soil moisture sensor monitors the plant on the left, while a water-level sensor monitors the pet bowl on the right. PLC logic controls the pumps that supply each side.

One reservoir. Two branches.
Left: a plant in a soil-filled pot with a soil moisture sensor. Right: a pet bowl holding water with a water-level sensor. The sensors report to an Allen-Bradley PLC, which controls separate plant and pet pumps. Water flows from one shared reservoir through each pump to its respective vessel. Dashed lines show sensor and control signals; solid purple lines show water flow.
