Inspired by nostalgic virtual pets, PlantSenso is a gamified sensor that makes plant care more fun by turning indoor greenery into living companions. PlantSenso monitors everything from moisture and light to temperature, and has users complete quests to collect rewards and grow their digital companion as their plant's health thrives.
