Project Description

There are many benefits to growing your own herbs in your yard or home, and as such, many people would like to start growing their own herbs. However, many different factors are involved in plant care and growth, which can make this process more complicate for unexperienced gardeners. The goal of EasyHerb is to make the process or caring for and growing herbs easier for the average user. This system is able to monitor and maintain the essential needs for herbs, like watering, lighting, and providing nutrients. EasyHerb uses a variety of sensors to determine what the herbs need and provides it to them without user interaction required. It is also possible for the user to operate the system remotely, so their plants can be maintained from wherever they are. As such, the system is able to automate and simplify the process of plant care, making herb growing more accessible to the average person.
