This week was about developing a plan for dissemination of the final project.
_INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND INCOME
There are many many watering systems, but as the important thing is to sell the impact of what I have created I think this project has a lot of ways to evolve. The assembly of the kit can keep on improving through interdisciplinary knowledge but the interesting thing is HOW.
The most direct application I can think about is when people travel. How to read the data we recieve from plants for example, to learn how to take care of them if we are travelling..
In another level, I can think about its scale can evolve, will this remain at a domestic scale? Can we insert it into a urban scale? How will it function at urban scale, as a system of kits, and how can this make people interact?
So an indirect application can be trying to achieve bigger purposes through an object that can teach people, making it catchy, playful, addressed to everybody, easy to do and to control.
In this case is about plants, different species and environments we need know about to make them grow because we need them, as we mutate, plants do too, even from the cities to the countrysides. People are becoming more interested and aware of this so another direct income it could have. How to read the data we recieve from plants for example, to learn how to take care of them if we are travelling..or if is not getting enough light. Finally It could be even about customizing the kit according to what the user wants to grow, the amount of water a certain species needs.
