Smart Plant Pot Monitor with Animated Plant Mood using Kypruino or Arduino

The Smart Plant Pot Monitor is a fun STEM project that combines environmental sensing, OLED graphics, programming, and 3D printing into one intelligent plant care system.

Using a Kypruino board, a 0.96" OLED display, and multiple environmental sensors, the monitor continuously measures soil moisture, ambient light, air temperature, and humidity. It displays an animated plant mood, live sensor readings, and personalized plant care advice directly on the OLED screen.

Designed for beginners and experienced makers alike, this project introduces IoT, environmental monitoring, and sensor integration through a fun and practical STEM build.

Perfect for makers, students, classrooms, workshops, and STEM education.
