Citizens meet science - the spring edition

In keeping with the season, we’re turning our attention to the garden and nature. Simply looking at flowers and plants—along with the sounds of nature—has a relaxing effect, lowers blood pressure, and eases pain. Getting some exercise outdoors while gardening relieves stress, brings good spirits, and puts delicious food on the table. But by the time the work is done and your back is aching and your knees are stiff in the evening, some gardeners might find themselves dreaming of a helpful little helper who could clear away the weeds overnight. Engineer Martin Herling from the Institute for Process Automation, Process Engineering, and Measurement Technology (IPM) at the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences invites anyone who’s curious to visit the research greenhouse of TU Dresden, which is conveniently located in Zittau. The first prototype of a gardening robot is on display there.

The event is organized through the Saxony5 project. Participation is free of charge.
Location: 02763 Zittau, Building Z IX, Friedrich-Schneider-Straße 26

Registration is requested, as space is limited.
