COUGHING PLANTER #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi
This fun project shared by msbirfday on Instructables uses a bunch of Adafruit gear and a Raspberry Pi Zero W
What’s this then?
A breathing, coughing, air-quality-sensing, Google-Sheets-logging, real-live-plant-having planter!
Using an air-quality sensor and a hidden Raspberry Pi Zero W, this little planter personifies a plant to sense indoor air quality.
Code and miscellaneous resources (laser cutter PDF and Fritzing model) are in the project’s Github repository.
Bill of Materials
- Raspberry Pi Zero W (other models should be fine, with small changes to the code and potentially wiring. The wifi is used to log to Google Sheets, but is otherwise optional.)
- An SGP30 air-quality sensor (we used the breakout board from Adafruit, but any similar one should work.)
- A 2.5W mono speaker amp and small speaker (we used this amp and this speaker)
- A Pimoroni Blinkt! LED strip (available here; you could also use a strip of 8 NeoPixels, with some small changes to the code)
- A power adapter for the Pi (perhaps this one)
