I have teamed up with Shalom to work on something that interests us both; It was almost too perfect. I wanted to work on a system that would automate looking after a plant and Shalom wants to build a system to assist in looking after a plant using AI and Fuzzy systems. Basically, every term used in that last sentence could have its own entire blog so I will do some separate posts on each concept.

Our current concept is a device to add to your indoor plants that will send notifications to your phone at the best times, to water the plant or do something to look after it. The notifications will be calculated based on the plant’s needs and then by using AI learning it will also calculate the time that you are most likely free to do the task and most want to do it.

After completing over 2 months of study in Japan I returned to complete chaos!

(Me watching the world burn)
I spent my time over there studying mostly Japanese Language. However, I also went to a lot of cultural events/places and travelled as much as physically possible. I hoped that I could use something that I saw or learnt there in my work somehow, I think I will have no problem with that.

Apon arriving home I really hit the ground running, even after a 30-hour connecting flight home I didn't even get a day to rest off the jetlag! I got called to do other things and then the next day had to move houses, yes, I’m moving out of home!

The next problem was I had missed about 3 weeks of my classes and had only been following what was posted online. with about a week to do all my assessments; It was a bit of a challenge…
