Teachers and students from the Department of molecular biotechnology, Changhua Daye University, developed a plant factory, and tried to grow all kinds of vegetables and fruits with LED light source technology and environmental temperature control. And recently announced the results: Hami melon, tomato and other crops are planted by the plant factory, of which Hami melon is juicy and sweet, and the yield can reach 8 times of greenhouse planting. The president of Daye University said that in the future, he hopes to transfer the technology to farmers and create new agriculture. At the same time, the University also carries out research and development according to the growth characteristics of each crop, and uses LED as the light source to save costs.
According to the associate professor of Molecular Biotechnology Department of the University, Hami melon is traditionally cultivated in open air or greenhouse. Although the technology is proficient, it can not be produced all year round due to the influence of weather. In addition, Hami melon has many diseases and pests, uneven quality and pesticide residues, so we try to plant it in a plant factory. Using LED light source technology and environmental temperature control, the Hami melon does not need pesticides at all. The average weight of each melon can reach more than 2kg, and the sugar content is more than 16 degrees. One plant can retain three fruits, and the plant life can reach one year. It can be harvested for five consecutive periods.
Intelligent ceiling fan supporting apple homekit protocol
Recently, Hunter fan company launched two intelligent ceiling fans on CES, which not only control through smart phones, but also support Apple's homekit protocol. The two intelligent ceiling fans named symphony and signal support Wi Fi connection and homekit platform, and can be voice controlled through Apple's Siri voice assistant. In addition to app remote control, it can also control the conditions through the geographical fence or scene of homekit, which is convenient for users to set the ceiling fan to turn off automatically after leaving the door.
"
In addition, these two products can also be integrated with other smart home products supporting homekit platform, including thermostats to form a complete control platform for smart home. For example, when the smoke detector detects smoke, the ceiling fan will automatically start to help air circulation, and activate its own LED lighting system. It is reported that symphony and signal are 54 inches in diameter, with built-in high-quality motor and LED lighting function.
