Smart plant care, anytime, anywhere.
SensiPot is a smart planter system designed for busy individuals who struggle with consistent plant care—especially while traveling. It combines an app-connected sensor system with a removable water tank and drip irrigation to monitor soil hydration, sunlight exposure, and temperature. The companion app enables users to track plant health, receive watering reminders, and even water remotely—ensuring thriving plants, even when life gets hectic.
This project addressed a common frustration: keeping plants healthy with a busy schedule. Through user interviews, surveys, and prototyping, I realized that transparency, automation, and ease of use were key to building user trust. SensiPot brings peace of mind to plant lovers by blending physical functionality with digital control. With further refinement, it could become a reliable solution for plant care across a variety of environments and lifestyles.
