It couldn’t get easier to grow your own food! No green thumb or experience necessary. They are solar-powered, self-watering, self feeding, and they use less water and less fertilizer than any other hydroponics system on the market. 'Mothers' Your Plants The patented A. While some children learn caregiving skills from pets, many children live in areas where pet ownership is impractical or not permitted. Growbot and Growall comprise an interactive robotic system that helps teach a child to care for a plant. If you are growing indoors, your growing lights are fully automated too. The panels ensure the self-watering, self-feeding hydroponics system and are 100 environmentally clean A.I. In this demonstration, it will be shown how Growbot interacts with a plant and communicates its needs to a caregiver. While you are working or on vacation, your food will get watered on pre-set timers.
Once seedlings are transplanted into the Tower Garden, your plants are fed by an automatic watering system that delivers a nutrient rich plant food to your crops. After germination, the cubes are placed in full light for a week or two where they develop into strong seedlings that are ready to transplant into your Tower Garden. Seeds for the Tower Garden are started in a rock fiber seeding cube called rockwool. This aeroponic vertical garden allows you to grow anywhere from 20 to 52 plants in a 2.5 diameter space! Because plant’s roots in the Tower Garden are suspended in the air, plants can grow 2-3 times faster than traditional methods. Stress testing was conducted on this system to make sure it was fully functional and void of any defects as one of the boards turned out to be defective after it was connected to the system.The Tower Garden growing system comes with EVERYTHING you need to start growing vegetables, herbs, and fruits at home – including specially formulated plant food and gourmet seeds. This allowed for the team to do much prep work for the eventual autonomous features of the robot to come to a completed state.Įarly in the semester, I changed course from constructing the autonomous battery charging feature on the robot from a programmatic assembly to that of a circuit based system. Growbot made significant strides this semester compared to the prior semesters during covid with the lab available and covid restrictions being somewhat lifted. In the following semester, this code will be implemented and tested on the bot. This code is available in the Growbot Github. Using the above detection, Python code was constructed with the help of multiple online sources to conduct the automatic charging of the battery on the bot. Using Wireshark to detect the signals sent between the host and device on a windows machine, Python is then able to send these signals to the charger to implement a form of autonomous detection and initiation of charging on the batteries as needed.
To do this, I taught myself USB Protocol and implemented the theory on the charger that is used for charging the batteries used in the bot. I then took over the job of getting the bot to autonomously charge itself. During this time, I worked with Wilson to improve the detection of the inductor by the bot to improve the wire following. While greenhouse technology might weigh 50 pounds per square footfar more than an average roof is designed to handlethe Cityblooms system weighs between 15 to 17 pounds per square foot. I lead the team in redefining the goals of the project for the semester and orienting ourselves with the vision of getting the bot to run autonomously along an inductor with autonomous charge completion and depletion detection. Semester 2 Spring 2021 ĭuring the spring semester, I took the role of Project Lead which was a demanding role to play as much of the vision of the project was lost in the transition between the last project lead and myself. I will be project lead for the coming semester so will hopefully be able to contribute more to this project than was able during the fall. PRODUCTS EXPAND OR REPAIR YOUR SYSTEM Rootwise Watering Pad. During Thanksgiving break and another two week quarantine at home, I went through the process of loading and installing all the software from the Growbot's Github page and updated some of the documentation for clarity. Wilson brought me up to speed with where the bot currently sits in terms of our objectives and I familiarized myself with using a raspberry pi during a two week quarantine. This semester started off late due to Covid-19 and some miscommunication.
