Approach

• First, I thought about the problem we have when we want to take care of the plants and interviewed some people.
• Then, from my research, I found an opportunity that people like my mom might keep their plants outdoors, and they don’t know when or just forget to bring the plants inside in an extreme weather.
• I figured that I could use Flex sensor to detect the wind, photoresister to detect the sunlight and temperature sensor for temperature. These are the factors that influence the plants’ well being outdoors.
• I determined the priority these environmental factors to the plant, and used two LEDs and a piezo to simulate the interaction to show how the environment influences the plant.
• Lastly, I wrote code according to my designed functions.
