Neo Grow
Neo Grow is a LED terrarium using a waterproof neopixel strip. It is made from laser cut wood, and using an arduino uno for the coding piece. It also houses three succulents that can all live in a closed container. I made this terrarium to serve as an aesthetic light on my desk, and also because I have so many plants and three of them needed a home. It contains 7 neopixel states, two of which are solid colors, and the other five are millis timer neopixel pattern configurations. My favorite state is the hot pink setting to help the plants grow. Also, there is a removable panel to make spraying the succulents with water easier. Lastly, there is an on and off button and a touch sensor to change between the states. This is a fully functional terrarium with a fun twist of lights.
This is one of the color settings and an example of how the plants look when the terrarium is lit up.
These are all the different color settings and my terrarium placed in its natural habitat.
Below you can find a video of my project in action!
Now you can look through the process I went through to get to the final product. Below are pictures of my foam core prototype, my breadboard, and fusion models.
Lastly, you can find my easyEDA circuit and my figma diagram to see how the patterns and buttons work.
