Abstract: Accordingly, the inventor has conceived and reduced to practice, a system and method of farming using a computer controlled micro-environment suitable for soil-based and soilless growing media that is sustainable and totally automated from seed to harvest. The system utilizes software, sensor networks, and computing hardware that monitors and alters the environment in the growing units and provides nutrients, water, lighting, air flow, and temperature control specific to the crop being cultivated in one or a combination of vertical assemblies of growing units with electronically controlled features. Each unit is enabled to independently seed, cultivate, and produce a mature crop and discharge the contents for further processing for the intended market.

Abstract: A system for a solar-powered protective car charging cover. The solar-powered car charging cover is designed to directly trickle charge electric cars by bypassing the internal charging power supply whilst also providing a protective barrier around the vehicle. This trickle charge provides enough power for charging cellular phones, powering lights, and other small electronics without further draining the battery and may even produce a net-positive charge to charge the vehicle's batteries. The barrier portion is a multi-layer cover with an adjustable-rigid air bladder layer sandwiched between an outer solar-panel layer and an inner vehicle paint protection layer. Zippered portions provide multiple configurations including using the solar-powered car charging cover without a vehicle for a make-shift tent with solar-powered charging ports. A power control box provides the means to connect external power sources to the solar-powered car charging cover.
