Project Title

FloraGPT - AI- and sensor-controlled irrigation with user-friendly interface for peat replacementoptimised cultivation methods

Project description

The project vision is to create an intuitive AI solution that not only allows farms to efficiently adapt
their irrigation to the peat substitute substrates, but also to control them fully automatically. In
addition, the interaction with such complex systems is to be completely rethought. The aim is to
explore a form of interaction that allows gardeners to speak intuitively with a digital colleague rather
than making complicated inputs on screens. For example, FloraGPT will provide customised advice
and guidance as peat replacement has specific watering needs. In addition, the system will enable
written documentation and adjustment of irrigation parameters via a digital voice assistant directly
in the field. The AI will process this verbal information so that it can be used as analyses at a later
date. This should help gardeners, for example, to organise the use of peat replacement products
efficiently.
90 per cent of Germany's peat extraction areas are located in Lower
Saxony. Our initiative is intended to contribute the transition to more sustainable alternatives as technologically simple as possible.<
