Water is one of the main raw materials available in nature, and it is indispensable to human life and activities, thus, the need for this resource is evident. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to create alternatives that aim to help in the best way to use water resources and avoid possible losses. Taking into account the various elements surrounding water waste, such as unuse, emptying of reserves, among others, this work aims to propose the creation of a model of an intelligent and ecological faucet, integrated of sensors and actuators, in order to assist in the preservation of water resources. To this, initially a requirements survey was carried out to understand the needs in the creation of this product and assist in the modeling of a viable proposal, followed by an in-depth study of the components that can integrate it and verify its possible forms of use. Subsequently, the creation and evaluation of the prototype, which was used as the basis of this study, following possible models described. Finally, the tests presented satisfactory results in reducing the waste of water resources, showing that the objective of this work was successfully achieved.
