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
- Arduino (I am using Arduino UNO)https://amzn.to/2K16VGu
- 1 megaohm resistor
- 3*LEDs( chosen your colours)
Circuit Diagram
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
