- Light sensor
- Temperature sensor
-
A web/mobile application where you will be able to see the collected information
- Requirements:
- Works on a raspberry pi, even the smallest
- No external requirements (you own your system)
- Works on mobile and desktop
- Requirements:
-
A shared database with some plants information/requirements to be able to grow (TBD)
