Very nice, the UI is super sleek :)

Is the Pi 5 really necessary though, especially since it's one per plant? The Pi 4 would surely be up to the challenge of rendering that while using less power and would be cheaper.

Thank you!

Originally, before I knew which plants I would use, I was going to use ML models to measure the surface area of the plants, and in earlier versions (before the camera) I had rotating, high polygon 3D models.

So I threw a bit more hardware at it than it needed because I didn’t want to have my future ideas limited by hardware
