Well done, A/Prof Cheryl McCarthy! We are looking forward to seeing the results of this exciting project in collaboration with project partners Medicinal Harvest, Axiom Space, University of Adelaide, and Yuri Gravity 🌿🚀
Exciting news... We're leading an out-of-this-world project to test machine vision technology for plant monitoring in space. Fun fact: It could provide vital clues to address food security challenges on Earth! @caeusq 🌱
