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: One embodiment is directed to a method for presenting views of a very large point data set, comprising: storing data on a storage system that is representative of a point cloud comprising a very large number of associated points; automatically and deterministically organizing the data into an octree hierarchy of data sectors, each of which is representative of one or more of the points at a given octree mesh resolution; receiving a command from a user of a user interface to present an image based at least in part upon a selected viewing perspective origin and vector; and assembling the image based at least in part upon the selected origin and vector, the image comprising a plurality of data sectors pulled from the octree hierarchy.

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.

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.
