Description
Summary:This report presents the building of a smart indoor plant monitoring and maintenance system for educational purpose. The hardware used for the building of the system are Raspberry Pi 3B+, Raspberry Pi camera, capacitive soil moisture sensor, photoresistor, Neopixel LED ring and immersible water pump. Upon receiving the desired configuration from user, the system will feedback to the plant’s environment through actuators, adjusting to the environment data received via the sensors. The system will transmit the information to user’s android smartphone wirelessly through the internet using Firebase Database. The software language used are Python 3.7 for Raspberry Pi 3B+ and Java for Android Studio for the smartphone application.
