The author, Javier de la Torre, embarked on a gardening project, allocating a 2-square-meter section of his garden to grow vegetables, including cabbage, broccoli, lettuce, and spinach. He utilized various technologies, including 11 sensors, a camera, and an old phone, to monitor and control the garden, with the goal of automating the process through an agent. The project aimed to demonstrate the potential of the Internet of Things (IoT) and resulted in the production of a €60 lettuce, highlighting the complexities and challenges of implementing IoT solutions in everyday applications, such as gardening, and the potential for excessive reliance on technology.
