Open Plant Bioelectric Potential Measurement


  • open source project
  • publish: 2022-09
  • This project aims to openly develop methods, devices, and applications for plant bioelectric potential measurement and make them available to a wide range of people. Also, this project aims to lower the barriers to plant bioelectric potential measurement, so that anyone who is interested can deepen their practical knowledge of the familiar and unknown life of plants through plant bioelectric potential.

    This project is derived from "chain of responses".
    So far, I have published applications such as Serial Plot Tools, a plant bioelectrical potential measuring device that can be used as an Arduino shield, and a book that covers everything from an overview to practical measurement methods, including "Measuring Plant Bioelectrical Potential for Beginners".

    Exhibitions and Presentations

    In order to promote the use of plant bioelectrometry as a means of observing plants, I am holding various exhibitions and presentations.
    I demonstrated, exhibited, and sold the plant bioelectric potential measuring device developed in this project and the introductory book on plant bioelectric potential measurement that I wrote.
