The P3 program is now offering Plant Cy-nce Toy Boxes for graduate students on a check-out basis. (see checkout form at plant_cynce_box_checkout_form.docx)
The boxes were designed for use in the Foundations in Predictive Plant Phenomics course (GDCB/ME/BCB 585) where each lab team receives a box of sensors, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, etc. to measure light intensity, soil water conductance, barometric pressure, etc. These instruments are available to graduate students in any major program who are interested in applying these technologies to their research projects.
