A team of researchers from Japan’s Keio University seems to have found a way to let plants react to their owners and even express how they feel. As you can see in the photo, this plant is angry… seriously.
And we are not talking about a robot plant. The system involves real plants sprouting out of a box that contains sensors and microphones that monitor its surroundings, as well as actuators connected to the plant.
As for the welfare of the plants, the researchers claimed they have rigged up plants for nearly a year and none have wilted so far. They cannot say, though, if we will see this plants in stores.
