PLants Employed As SEnsor Devices (PLEASED)

Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 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 ...

Integrated air quality sensor for energy efficient environment control (INTASENSE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"Space heating accounts for more than 50% of the energy consumption of public & residential buildings, and reduction of this energy demand is a key strategy in the move to low energy/low carbon buildings. The careful management of air flow within a building forms part of this strategy through the control of inlet fresh air and exhaust air, maximising air re-circulation, and minimising the amount o ...
