Winter is coming! It's easier for us to feel lonely and being abandoned when we stay at a cold temperature. But when you have a friend who can feel your energy and temperature, you will feel much better. In the current market for virtual Pet, many products focus on developing the personalities and the integrated functions but ignore the emotional and physical bonding with humans.
To develop a virtual pet, who can show her bad status when at bad weather until receiving your support and energy. There is an energy transition between you and your virtual pet. In other words, your pet will be alive again from your energy. Thus, the users will have a feeling of being needed by others.
The first person I interviewed is my father, who is a college teacher and spend most of his life teaching others. But when the retirement day is coming nearly and nearly, he has anxiety feeling that he has not been needed by his students, even the society. Especially in the bad weather when he stays at home alone, the loneliness swallowed up his sense of achievement in life. How to design a virtual pet that makes him feel needed again?

4. Build the circuit and pseudocode
5. Coding and connect with weather API
6. Adjust and test code
