A new study by Oregon State University researchers found that shade provided by solar panels increased the abundance of flowers under the panels and delayed the timing of their bloom, both ...

The flower’s leaves themselves bear solar panels that collect energy, analogous to leaves on a plant. A Raspberry Pi Pico is at the heart of the show, which is outfitted with a DS1307 real-time ...

SmartFlower is an intelligent "sunflower" that will "bloom" to generate clean solar energy ... the tilt angle of its panels to follow the sun and maximize absorption. Flower power to the rescue.
