Overview

Go to Solution

There are a lots of people who grow the plant. But it is so hard to know how to take care various plants. This is the solution for people with disabilities, back pain and the elderly.


WHAT I LEARN
While integrating the app and the product, I learned the importance of consistency between the hardware and software of a unified service for the user. Focusing on short-term implementation. I couldn't design the water tank this time, but next time, I plan to evolve it into a complete service brand that appears cohensive.

Research
Smart Indoor Gardening

Global interest in smart indoor gardening is on the rise, with doubled figures and increased Google searches. However, survey responses indicate common challenges like consistent watering and plant management difficulties, especially for those with disabilities and the elderly, straining their joints.

TARGET

People with disabilities
The elderly
Don't know how to grow the plants well

PROJECT GOAL

A service that makes it easy and comfortable to successfully grow plants with minimal plant information.

ONE
Collecting pain points from research

TWO
Conducting Competitive analysis and Brainstorming

-> What is the pain points based on the research?

PAIN POINTS 01

Consistent waterting

PAIN POINTS 02

Straining their joints

PAIN POINTS 03

Lack of knowledge and information

SOLUTION

Auto Management + Diary Application

We have developed a product and service that seamlessly integrates with users' existing pot, unlike other plant care products. Once users input their plant details, the application automatically stores its care routine.

01
Remote Automation control

02
Auto Management

03
Diary of plant growth

04
Utilizing existing plant pots

FEATURE 01

Watering the plant at scheduled intervals and sending alerts for light and humidity needs

FEATURE 02

Facial expressions to convey the plant's status, incorporates humidity and light sensors and syncs effortlessly with the app

FEATURE 03

Camera can also help user watch their plants grow

Design Solution
Studying the Module of Sensor

I designed UI of application based on wireframe and sketch and making 3D modeling based on studying modules like humidity, light sensor.
