Next Steps

Taking this project forward, I would try to refine how often the flex sensor reading creates an alert. I would like to have it alert the plant owner once a day if the plant starts to wilt rather than every time the sensor records it as wilting. I would also refine the brightness of the LED according to the brightness in the room. Currently, it either fully turns on or fully turns off; however, in varying brightness conditions, the LED may not need to be at maximum brightness. Thus, adjusting the sensitivity of the photoresistor and LED would be a next step.

There could be ways to allow the plant owner to further engage with the fairies or use them for other purposes. This would be something I could further explore.
