probing the possibilities

just built a humidity sensor, that detects the levels of conductivity in the soil (higher for wetter, lower for dryer) and created the code to monitor the data coming back into the computer. also tested connecting it to a voltage reader so you can see the fluctuations on a more traditional meter, a more tangible and direct feedback option.

already, just in a day, i've moved my practice from the illusion of monitored plants - to actually monitored plants. this is pretty exciting. the potential now is to take the raw data that's coming into the computer from the plant, and turn that into something - action, sound, vision.  and also, to hook up multiple plants to read them collectively and combine multiple feeds together.
