They are widely used in home gardening, companionship for people living alone, and the construction of smart home ecosystems. They can effectively reduce the threshold for plant maintenance and adapt to the needs of modern fast-paced life and special groups.

[0003] However, most existing smart flower pots only have single parameter monitoring and simple control functions, lacking a dedicated parameter configuration system for different plant types. The data preprocessing accuracy is insufficient, and they are easily affected by environmental interference, leading to decision-making biases. At the same time, traditional devices have fixed control strategies, lack dynamic weight analysis capabilities, cannot adapt to plant growth cycles and regional climate differences, and lack emotional interaction design, making it difficult to meet the companionship needs of people living alone.
