Health-Monitoring Garden Gadgets

The Monologue Plant Monitor Lets You Know What Your Plant Needs

— December 10, 2011 — Eco
The Monologue Plant Monitor is a futuristic gadget designed to track the health and well-being of your garden. The Monologue Plant Monitor is a small, transparent stake designed to observe the conditions of your favorite plants.

The Monologue Plant Monitor was designed by Hyun Seok Kang of Hyun Design. Monologue uses its sensors to tell you when your plant needs water, sunlight or heat. The display can tell you the current temperature outside, which should be helpful when trying to decide how cold is too cold for your plants. Monologue would be great for the gardener of the future as it makes raising plants almost failproof. Unfortunately there is currently no substitute for knowledge when it comes to gardening, but that could all change if Hyun Design's Monologue goes from concept to reality.
Trend Themes
1. Smart Garden Monitors - The rise of smart garden monitors provides an opportunity for disruptors to design customizable plant monitoring devices with AI functionalities.
2. Iot-based Gardening - IoT-based gardening innovations could revolutionize the agriculture industry, allowing farmers to remotely monitor their crops and reduce waste.
3. Home Agriculture Technology - Home agriculture technology is a growing trend that could be disruptive to the food production industry by enabling consumers to grow their own produce at home.
Industry Implications
1. Smart Home - The smart home industry has an opportunity to integrate plant monitoring gadgets like the Monologue Plant Monitor into their product lines.
2. Agriculture - The agriculture industry could benefit from implementing smart garden monitors to increase crop efficiency and reduce waste.
3. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronics companies could develop user-friendly plant monitoring gadgets that appeal to amateur gardeners and add to their product lines.
