The loss and imminent extinction of plant species is a global issue often caused by multiple factors, including human activities, habitat destruction, climate change and illegal collection. Therefore, rising plant protection awareness in people's daily life is important. Smartphones enable users to identify and adopt virtual plants nearby. These AR virtual plants thrive and flourish as users nurture them, while also offering valuable care tips. Additionally, users can engage friends in ecological activities, earning credits that can be redeemed for discounts when buying real plants.
This project was originally done at the request of the Ecology and Environment Office of Loughborough University, and later found that it was not only applicable to the campus, but also applicable to the general public, so that the public care about the environment and care for plants, is a meaningful thing.
