Tool to Help Grow Plants.

I designed a machine that would measure the conditions of a plant, activate sprinklers automatically based on how dry the plant is, and notify a person whether conditions were bad or not. This can help people more easily grow plants and trees, encouraging helping the environment.

To make the apple, I used the scribble tool, and then duplicated it, rotated it 30 degrees, and then duplicated it several times to make the full apple. I then used a brown cone and green sphere and attached them together with the apple.

To create the container, I first created a cylinder, scaled it to be smaller, and then created another cylinder to make the hole. I added 4 blocks on this side and scaled them to be taller. To create the glass, I created another cylinder, and then made another whole. I then turned on transparency and created a few more holes at the top of the glass.

To create the screen, I made a few blocks and turned them into the black screen and grey box. To make the meter and percentage sign on the screen, I made very thin boxes and put them just in front of the screen. The percentage sign was made with a block that was rotated and 2 rings. The screen will display the health of the plant and the percent also represents some of the plant's health.

The sprinklers were the last thing I made, consisting of only 5 blocks each, with 4 blocks coming out of the grey one to represent water. This will water the plant automatically when it is needed.

This is the final product, after combining everything together! This machine will encourage people to grow their own plants, making a better future where trees and plants flourish, and people want to help save the earth.
