Flower Pi

A raspberry pi powered flower that shows the current pollen count.

Features

  • Scrapes the Met Office for UK regional pollen count
  • An LED clock, the background for which represents the pollen count (red = high, yellow = medium, green = low)
  • A sensor that turns the LEDs on for a few seconds when it notices movement
  • Error reporting using IFTTT (keyed by an environment variable)
  • Signal handling to turn off all the lights if the program is asked by the OS to stop

Missing features:

  • Tests 😭

Physical Parts:

Controlled by the app:

  • Raspberry Pi Zero W
  • RasPiO InsPiRing Driver Board
  • RasPiO InsPiRing Circle
  • PIR sensor, connected to GPIO 17, GND and 3.3V

Additionally, by editing /boot/config:

  • a button (with resistor) to turn the device on/off by connecting GPIO3 to GND.
  • a power led (with resistor) connected to GPIO 13 and GND
