summary |
This paper introduces a study demonstrating the growth of plants robotically, where robots live on the stem of a plant and morph their growth without external artificial scaffolding. The encoded software in the robot maintains interval locomotion over twelve weeks, while triggering on board lighting climbs to direct the growth. Outputs of twelve weeks of growth experiments in total are presented with the final shapes of plants. We also discuss the morphogenetic plasticity of plants and their growth responses to the environment, and other mechanisms of shaping that could be used in the future. Such work may pave a way towards new forms of arbortecture in the future. |
