Houseplants remind the masters of watering need themselves

Company Parrot, the developer of quadrocopter controlled by iPhone, presented its new invention - a gadget called Flower Power. A smart sensor that you can insert into a pot to monitor the plant's environmental variables: sunlight, humidity, temperature and fertilizer. The data is sent to the cloud via Bluetooth Smart for analysis before coming back to your mobile device, and you'll be able to look up Parrot's "library of thousands of plants" for the extra care for your herbal friends. No price has been announced for the Flower Power just yet, but it'll definitely be out at some point this year…
