Team 3 – Automated Greenhouse
Team Members:
Description:
Plants and gardening have become a large part of many peoples lives and a popular hobby, and increased in popularity even more during the pandemic. With people starting to get back to their normal routines, this project will allow people to take the same care of their plants but use less of their time. This greenhouse will increase the chance of plants surviving with minimal care and encapsulates the idea of sustainable farming on a smaller scale. This could become critical with the climate crisis and allow for accessibility of food to more people.
This automated greenhouse is controlled directly through a Raspberry Pi and some sensors are used to detect moisture, temperature, and sunlight levels. The data from the sensors are displayed through a mobile app by a database and the user is able to interact with the greenhouse remotely.
