What will it do?

This humidifier will activate if the humidity in the room is below 50%. The humidifier is built up of multiple chambers containing different scents. Which scent is released depends on what time of day it is.

The scents will be based on Helga Schimits theory of Uchronia and research done with an EEG scanner attempting to determine how different natural oils affect adtivates and decreases activity in some parts of the brain.

My goal is to create a humidifier that works with the 7 phases of the body: The sleep phase, the wake up phase, the cognitive productivity phase, the nap phase, the physical productivity phase, the intutive phase and the sleepiness phase.

Who's done what beforehand?

Humidifiers are fairly common at the moment. I have so far not found one releasing different scents. The closest I came was this jellyfish humidifier I found on Alibaba.

What sources will you use?

Not sure what this means

What will you design?

I will design the base, some of the electronic components, the water containers and the casing for the water containers as well as write the code.
