Here is a flagging tree in our office, but due the busy work and the room are not suitable for the tree’ s growth, it is flagging now. I read a short elecrow blog about a project making use of kinds of crowtail modules that aims to collect the data of the tree such as light strength, soil moisture, temperature and humidity of this tree. In this way, people can know the current situation of the tree and then take actions accordingly.
The major function is to collect the data of soil moisture, light strength of this tree and the indoor temperature & humidity. When the soil is short of water, the buzzer controlled by Crowtail will tweet reminding to water the tree. What’s more, it can also display all the data from every sensor on the OLED screen.
Then establish LANS (Local Area Network Server) through the ESP8266 module. It allows all the computers in this LANS to visit to know the living environment of this tree and the current temperature & humidity of office. With the help of this project, the members will be able to know the situation of this tree at any time and them take according measure to care this tree.But what ‘s the other materials I will need on?
