Innovative Robotic Artefacts Inspired by Plant Roots for Soil Monitoring (PLANTOID)
Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2015,
We aim at designing, prototyping, and validating a new generation of ICT hardware and software technologies inspired from plant roots, called PLANTOIDS, endowed with distributed sensing, actuation, and intelligence for tasks of environmental exploration and monitoring. PLANTOIDS take inspiration from, and aim at reproducing, the amazing penetration, exploration, and adaptation capabilities of plan ...

PLants Employed As SEnsor Devices (PLEASED)
Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2015,
Plants have amazing and significant sensing capabilities. For instance, each single root apex can simultaneously and continuously monitor many chemical and physical parameters. Natural organisms, including human beings, have often inspired works of science and science fiction on how to augment their abilities or interface them with machines. As a remarkable example, electroencephalography (EEG) en ...

The roots of plant productivity: how the rhizosphere interact with the aboveground armament for indirect and direct defense against abiotic stressors (ROOTS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
"The roots represent at least half, by mass, of the body of a plant; through this hidden part, water and nutrients are assimilated, and together with atmospheric CO2, constitute the basis of the entire reserve food of the planet. Moreover, the roots affect plant growth through many other processes in addition to their role in water and nutrients uptake: located at the interface between soil and ab ...

Gentle remediation of trace element contaminated land (GREENLAND)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
"Gentle remediation options (g.r.o.) include various (mostly plant based) approaches to remediate trace element contaminated soils at low cost and without significant negative effects for the environment. Although g.r.o. comprise very innovative and efficient technologies, they are still not widely used as practical site solution due to several reasons of hindrance for applying g.r.o. as practical ...
