| Summary: | Singapore is a country known for importing most of their food with over 90% imported.
However, the past few years has taught us that food security is something that can be changed
drastically quickly. From lockdown restrictions thru COVID 19 to war breaking out between
Russia and Ukraine, it has hindered the global food exports and affected us. This highlights the
importance to strengthen our local food production.
In addition, land space in Singapore is limited and not much area can be used for companies to
grow local produces. Area used in housing is the highest which can be a solution to increase food
production.
In this project, we will be looking at the current innovation and technologies available in indoor
planting and ways we could improve in them to fit into our everyday lives. With the usage of
sensors and processors plus data to analyze plant growth. |
