Approach

First I defined the features of this project using Maslow's hierarchy of needs:

1. Survival:

Monitoring the vital index of the plant to make sure it survives by using a moisture sensor. If she needs water, then she gives a signal and sends you an email

2. Functional:

a. Using the photosensor to detect if you turn on the lamp for a long time and if the answer is YES, she will remind you that you sit in the chair for too long and you should take a break.

b. Also, she uses the sound detector to measure the sound of your room and if you are too loud and disturb other people, the plant will remind you in a very gentle way.

3. Recreational:

Using a button to let the plant sing a random song. The plant also sings to you when you feed her water as an appreciation.
