flora robotica - crowds of robots to grow our houses and future green cities
Published on Nov 8, 2016
Quote:
Within the EU-funded project "flora robotica" two essentials for our future life on earth are being merged: technology and nature. Following a simple yet radically new idea, our international team of researchers is envisioning and constructing a bio-hybrid society of robots and natural plants. This bio-hybrid society will be able to reach human-collaborative goals by communicating, working, and growing together. flora robotica takes the first steps toward intelligent plants that can adaptively and sustainably grow our built environment - from urban furniture, to public spaces, to buildings, to
entire cities.
This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the FET grant agreement, no. 640959.

In the project flora robotica we investigate how humans, robots, and plants can interact. In this video we show the possibilities of sophisticated sensor technology to make plants interact with you. The technology used is electrophysiology. You see cables attached to the plant that are used to measure electrical signals.
