The program gave us access to fabrication facilities like 3D printers and laser cutters, as well as a wide range of tools, components, and lab space that made rapid... Continue Reading →

IRRIGO: IoT-based remote watering and monitoring system for houseplants

I made this as a part of a school project back in grade 10th. Irrigo is an IOT based smart gardening system. It allows people to remotely water and monitor the environmental factors (moisture, humidity, temperature) of their plants. This leads to convenience and an increase in the plant’s lifespan.  This was my first time... Continue Reading →
