App-controlled, vertical farming for limited indoor space

New smart farming system CityCrop is a vertical hydroponics set-up that allows growers to make best use of limited space and monitor their plants via app.

For city dwellers worldwide, finding space to grow their own herbs, vegetables and flowers is a near-constant search. Athens-based CityCrop has created a smart solution. Using vertical hydroponics (a growing system based on water, not soil), growers can farm a variety of crops indoors and with minimal square footage. The vertical farm is completely climate controlled, uses LED lights to promote rapid growth and connects to the app with wifi, making it easy for farmers to manage their crops remotely.

Job-Stealing Robots?

Job-Stealing Robots? Millennials See Hope, Fear in Automation

As the old French adage goes, plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose: the more things change, the more they stay the same. But that was before the physical, biological, and digital worlds began merging to give us what I refer to as the “Fusion Revolution,” disrupting whole industries and giving rise to a new mantra—the more things change, the quicker things change.

Take life sciences. When I began working with the industry, clients didn’t have opportunities to leverage digitized data to quicken the drug discovery process. And it would be years before robots could precisely grip test tubes, vials, and petri dishes to help with sensitive lab tests. That was a human’s job!

Five years ago, universities like MIT and Stanford first opened up free online courses to the public. Today, more than 700 schools around the world have created thousands of free online courses.

Some of the most popular courses have been those focused on technology — topics like programming, computer science, data science, and artificial intelligence.

The Sinclair C5 is reborn

The Sinclair C5 is reborn:

1980s electric tricycle gets 21st century update from inventor’s nephew

The Iris E-Trike will cost £3,499 and up CREDIT: GRANT SINCLAIR

It is remembered as one of the biggest disasters in technology history and the moment when a celebrated inventor pushed the boundaries too far, but the Sinclair C5 is set for a comeback.

The electric tricycle developed by Sir Clive Sinclair has been reborn by his nephew, 32 years after its predecessor first went on sale.

The original C5 was seen as a revolutionary electric vehicle that could reach speeds of 15mph, and at £399 would be a cheap way to get around, exempt from road tax and insurance.
