Electronic Plants

​

Plants are everywhere, an indispensable part of our ecosystem and essential for our survival. Electronics are also everywhere, in our homes, in the cities, central part of our lives. Can we add electronic functionality to plants and interact with them at another level? Can plants consist part of our technology? I will discuss our findings and efforts to merge electronics with plants. Electronic devices and circuits are fabricated within the internal structure of the plant and bioelectronics devices are applied to plants and control their functions. We aim to establish a revolutionary symbiosis between plants and technology opening pathways for integration in urban settings, agriculture and forestry.
