We humans keep many other living things around us, like pets and plants. But the problem is that we can’t understand or communicate with these other beings. It would make life easier for the plant owner if the plant could just express itself. The Pet Plant by Junyi Heo allows your plants to do just that.

It’s a high-tech pot that will read soil conditions, temperature, humidity, and water. It makes calculations based on the need of the plant, and then expresses its condition through an LCD display. I’m guessing that means that if you nearly kill it, it will stare daggers at you so you feel really bad/scared for your life.

It does have some self preservation built in. For instance, it will let you know if you’ve over watered it and will then drain itself into a water vessel. A USB interface charges and transmits info to and from computer software. It’s pretty creepy.
