Power plant
2017 Case study
An iPad app that keeps track of house plants' health.
The app communicates with a sensor in the plant that measures humidity and light.
When tilting the iPad, the water flows around realistically.
The water indicates if the plant was watered too much / too little.
A sensor in the plants communicates to the iPad:
-
The health of the plant (0–100%)
-
If it is getting the right amount of sunlight
-
If it is getting the right amount of water
The app allows to:
-
Quickly assess the state of all plants
-
Know if any of your plants need help
-
Add a new plant and sensor

The camera turns on, directions to the best spot appear augmented on the image
Add a plant flow
When a new sensor is activated,
it is detected by the app and an alert is displayed at the top of the screen
Take a picture of the plant
