Touch sensitive arduino plant

in this tutorial, I am showing how to build a touch sensing plant using Arduino

that is when you touch the plant the colour changes.

first, watch this video

Things Needed

Circuit Diagram

Untitled Sketch_bb.png

I made circuit diagram using fritzing software

Connections

first, connect 1 megaohm resistor between pin 2 and 4 of Arduino

then attach the touch line to pin 4 also connect the other end to your plant now connect 3 LEDs(different colours) to pin5,6,7 if you are using RGB LED then connect the common ground to ground and connect other pins to Arduino digital pin 5,6,7

Library

this project works base on the change in capacitance so we are using capacitivesensor.h library

download library from here

Arduino Code

Happy Making

connect Arduino and plant with some good conducting wire like copper and also use good plants I mean water-rich plants like magic bamboo, water Lilly
