  • Vprobe Intelligent Plant Health Assistant

Imagine your plants being able to tell you what they need, and if something is wrong.

Vortex Vitality is an innovative start up company dedicated to connecting people with nature. We were briefed to take their idea and turn it into a manufacturable solution ready for production.
The idea was the Vprobe plant sensor probe; an intelligent plant health assistant with six sensors to measure soil moisture, soil temperature, air temperature, sunlight, humidity and plant fertility.
The probe connects with an app to send notifications about the plant’s health and care requirements. The design of the probe needed to be stylish, elegant and robust, and crucially only 14mm in diameter.

Designed and engineered in the UK

We designed and engineered the product in Solidworks, working closely with the electronics engineer to ensure the PCB and battery would fit within the ultra small tubular design.
We employed our skills in designed robust products by ensuring the probe was waterproof from any splashes from watering cans.

Vprobe prototype creation

We created high-fidelity SLA prototypes to test the fit and function of the product.
It’s always an exciting time to see a Kickstarter project we worked on become reality. We wish the Vortex Vitality team every success with the Vprobe plant health assistant, which is now on sale via Amazon.

What an effortless transaction. I had been putting off getting my patent drawing done as thought it was going to be a long and arduous job but Cornelius Creative exceeded all my expectations. A straightforward process, knew exactly what I needed and quick turnaround with less then 48 hours! Communication was 2nd to none....
