Abstract: A grow system. The system includes growing plants in grow modules that are individually moveable. The plants grow in trays where roots never touch the water supply. The plumbing to the grow modules is a low flow, one way flow continual drip system that is hands free. A mobile robot can navigate around a growspace, bring any grow module from one location to another, and perform growspace operations. The growspace is a control space with data source zones and a control space manager. The control space manager can collect data and control different variables across different data source zones in order to determine optimal policies and conditions for data source growth and generation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for high spatial and temporal resolution of environmental observations. Improved resolution is achieved by using machine learning methods to build a function from observations from frequently measuring stationary sensors to another sensor in a different location at a corresponding time. Given values from the reference sensor, the learned function can impute sensor measurements in unobserved locations and times.

Abstract: A non-interconnected growth system. The system includes a plurality of plant growth units. Each plant growth unit in the plurality of plant growth units is water and nutrient isolated from any other plant growth unit. The system also includes a dynamic nutrient manager configured to collect data from the one or more plant growth units and calculate a customized nutrient plan for each plant growth unit based on the collected data. The system also includes a central fertilizing system configured to receive the nutrient plan for each plant growth unit and deliver nutrients to each plant growth unit based on their respective nutrient plan.

Abstract: A grow space automation system. The system includes growing plants in grow modules that are individually moveable. One or more mobile robots can navigate around a grow space, bring any grow module from one location to another, and perform grow space operations. The grow space operations can be automated using robot-based actuation of automation fixtures. Interactions with plants can also be achieved via robot attachments. The grow space is configured to allow maximum grow tray density while still maintaining traveling pathways for the mobile robots. Multiple mobile robots move about the grow space in their respective travel zones in coordination with one another via navigation planners. Multi-robot coordination can also be achieved using a central server. Local leveling of grow trays can be achieved via laser levels.

Abstract: A grow system. The system includes growing plants in grow modules that are individually moveable. The plants grow in trays where roots never touch the water supply. The plumbing to the grow modules is a low flow, one way flow continual drip system that is hands free. A mobile robot can navigate around a growspace, bring any grow module from one location to another, and perform growspace operations. The growspace is a control space with data source zones and a control space manager. The control space manager can collect data and control different variables across different data source zones in order to determine optimal policies and conditions for data source growth and generation.

Abstract: A growspace automation system and method. The system includes a grow space with localization structures and a mobile robot. The mobile robot comprises sensors, a mobility mechanism, and a plurality of mobility modules. The mobile robot is configured to automate growspace processes, such as transport, watering, sensing, or cleaning.

Abstract: A plumbing system and water transport method. The system includes a global water source, a one way water transport mechanism, a growing tray, and a local buffer. The local buffer separates the global water source and the growing tray to prevent cross-contamination of water. The local buffer also continuously provides water to the growing tray on demand without the need for filtering or dumping of used or excess water. This results in low flow, efficient water transport.
