In this video tutorial, I'll explain how I created an escape room puzzle using an Arduino UNO to set the correct lighting conditions to make three flowers grow :) The Arduino reads the value from three sliding linear potentiometers, which it translates into an RGB value. That value is sent via a DMX shield to set the colour of a stage light. If the colour matches the colour of petals on one of the flowers, that flower grows up towards the light!

This could be used in an escape room puzzle if, once all three flowers have fully bloomed, a message can be read from their stems, or an item retrieved from the tips of the flowers, or any other effect triggered by the Arduino.
