Leaf Surface Thermal Sensing
Targeting FLIR Lepton 3.5 thermal array to capture leaf surface temperature non-invasively — evaluating true transpiration stress dynamics.
VPD Real-Time Computation
Designed to compute Vapour Pressure Deficit by pairing leaf surface temperature with atmospheric humidity to monitor transpiration pressure.
Gas Resistance Soil Proxy
BME688 gas sensor reads volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as a non-invasive indicator for substrate microbial activity and stress.
NTE™ Voice Translation
Nature Translated to Emotion™. An on-device acoustic synthesis model concept that converts sensor readings into natural plant voice interpretations.
On-Device TinyML Inference
Designed around low-power ESP32-S3 microcontrollers — local-first inference with optional encrypted telemetry synchronization.
Biometric Telemetry History
View time-series trends of VPD, thermal delta, gas resistance, and environmental metrics over time to spot care trends.
Intelligent Alerts Vision
Threshold alerts for VPD spikes, thermal stress, and environmental shifts delivered as companion app push notifications or voice updates.
Companion App Vision (iOS & Android)
The Vriksh Vani app vision allows naming plants, selecting voice personalities, viewing telemetry graphs, and managing devices.
Smart Home Mesh Vision
Designed to connect via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to trigger humidifiers, grow lights, and fans via smart home protocols.
Privacy-First Architecture
No camera images or ambient voice audio recorded. Thermal frame buffers exist only in volatile SRAM and are purged immediately.
Offline-First Sensing
Designed to continue monitoring and signal processing locally without requiring constant active cloud connections.
Open Data Collaboration
Opt-in framework to contribute anonymised biometric telemetry to public research datasets for plant science advancing.
