Inspiration

At the beginning of covid, I took up a hobby in botany, as well as many others. I quickly realized that I did not have a knack for plants, in fact, I killed a cactus. BloomBot came up with an idea to automate plant growing in your own home!

What it does

BloomBot collects data on -Ambient Humidity -Ambient Temperature -Soil Moisture ratio -UV Light And makes decisions based off the collected data, such as watering the plant, increasing UV rays received to the plant.

How we built it

Arduino.

Challenges we ran into

Arduino. Memory management quickly became our biggest obstacle.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The Arduino is functioning independently as well as the webserver. Also, Ben learned how to solder.

What we learned

-Soldering -Basic Electrical Wiring -PostgresSQL -Arduino project completion -Collaborative Teamwork -CockroachDB -Trefle.io -3D printing

What's next for BloomBot

Improve the platform, and maximize overall performance while reducing SRAM utilization.
