I-Wood explores the underground fungal networks connecting plants to develop innovative robotic systems inspired by these natural interactions. By mimicking plant behaviors, the project aims to enhance robotics and artificial intelligence for ecological applications, promoting biodiversity and addressing climate change…
Plants are connected to each other by an underground network of fungi that provide them with nutrients, help share resources, and extend their perception abilities.
This mycorrhizal network, known as the Wood Wide Web, plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy natural ecosystems, and in limiting the global warming.
Thus, it must be preserved in order to mitigate the speeding up of the carbon cycle and its effects on climate change.
Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can offer concrete s…
