Flora Robotica: Societies of Symbiotic Robot-Plant Bio-Hybrids as Social Architectural Artifacts

Resultado final

Report on the final algorithms and plant-affection of bio-hybrid organism

Report on the main control algorithms and control paradigms that will be applied to the robotic implementation of our bio-hybrid systems later in the project. It includes a discussion of challenges and limitations of the chosen approaches.

Representations and design rules

Deliverables for task 3.1 will include a design modelling and simulation space for generating and evaluating digital representations of flora robotica examples. The design modelling space will have the capacity to link to real-world data as a means of informing simulations (physical symbiont to the representational) and specifying actions (representational to the physical symbiont). In addition, a specification of architectural design rules will be established and encoded within the system and also described through other representational means such as physical portfolio and design files.

flora robotica as social garden

Deliverables for task 3.3 are an architectural space, or spaces, comprised of physical flora robotica systems, together with a publicly accessible website. Within the context of the website, deliverables will be the provision of access to information (current and archived) related to the physical sites, and a virtual evolutionary space that promotes the exploration of simulated flora robotica systems.

Evaluation of the robotic symbiont

A report where we evaluate the features of the robotic symbiont and to which degree it supports the ability to control and sustain the plant symbiont.

Evaluation of mechatronics prototype of the robotic symbiont including supporting software

A report on the mechanical properties and implemented features of the robotic symbiont.

Plant-robot interaction mechanisms and distributed actuation system

We report on the sensors developed for sensing the state of the plant and also on the developed distributed actuation system to actuate the robotic symbiont and support the plant symbiont.

Progress on basic models of bio-hybrid organisms

Report of the initial efforts and model building choices to approach algorithm design questions in the context of our biohybrid organisms

Architectural propositions

Construction logics and architectural propositions will be demonstrated through digital simulations and physical models at appropriate scales (including 1:1 where possible). For construction logics, the deliverables will focus on demonstrating the design principles of primary junctions and symbiont system conditions (ground connection, structural nodes, infrastructure integration, biological/technical junctions, etc). For the architectural propositions, the deliverables will focus on simulations exploring 'growth career' as a process, and models demonstrating key states within this growth career.

Final report on the development of a bio-hybrid Superorganism

Final report of the control methods and the investigated approaches to guide plant growth in order to create a bio-hybrid system of the two cooperating agent groups: plants and robots.

Report on the integration of algorithms on flora robotica and first tests

Report on the first steps of implementing the chosen control algorithms on an early prototype of the actual flora robotica system in hardware; including first tests involving robots and plants.

Investigation of current mechatronics systems as a basis for the robotic symbiont

A survey of mechatronics systems suitable for use as the hardware basis for the robotic symbiont

Data management plan (open research data pilot)

This is the data management plan describing the details of what kind of data the project will generate, how it will be exploited and made accessible for verification and reuse, and how it will be curated and preserved.
