Smart planter
Touch interaction
Plant Status Display

PlantPal helps busy plant owners water correctly and stay aware of plant health through moisture based states shown on the M5 display.

Automation acts as a safety net while gentle touch interaction keeps plant care emotional and human.

Role: Team project

Methods: User journey mapping, pain point synthesis, interaction prototyping, sensor and pump testing, iterative CAD and 3D printing  

Outcome: A working concept prototype that visualises four plant states and triggers watering via touch interaction with automatic watering in urgent conditions
