LED-based technology in horticulture The effects of LED emission on biological organisms are well known. Current literature indicates a response of cellular metabolism to different emission spectra, especially infrared, combinations of red and blue, blue and green, and other spectra of LED emission. Research has been conducted on the effects of LED light on animal […]
Phytosensing and phytoactuating system The phytosensor measures physiological and electrophysiological parameters of plants (productive and domestic plants, herbs, shrubs, trees). In addition to phytosensing, the device can perform phytoactuation, i.e. control light, irrigation or fertilization. The combination of phytosensing and phytoactuation allows not only to monitor the physiological state of plants in real time, but
