Smart pots
Join Ester as she looks for solutions to keep her plants healthy and creates a smart pot system.
Computational thinking
Ester designed a prototype of smart gardening that allows you to know the moisture level of a plant. Additionally, she created an animated simulation to demonstrate how it would work. To program it, she used variables and value ranges.

Maker moment
Let's build a smart pot!
It’s time to create our humidity control system and monitor the weather conditions! For this, we will use the soil moisture sensor, the temperature & humidity sensor and the light sensor.
Open step-by-step assembly

Components

SENSOR
Soil moisture sensor
Measures the soil moisture level.

SENSOR
Temperature & humidity sensor
Reads the temperature and humidity of the environment.

SENSOR
Light sensor
Detects the amount of light in the environment.
Let's program!
Access the Robots platform to program your smart pot system. In the first challenge we will measure and display the humidity level, in the second challenge we will incorporate light and temperature measurements.
