Abstract

This paper defines the principles of automating the mushroom cultivation process by using their bioelectric potential feedback as a control parameter. Previous studies within this research group examined different environmental stimulations with respect to mushroom bioelectric potential feedback characteristics. This SMA (Speaking Mushroom Approach) system proposes the use of these identified bioelectric feedback characteristics as a method to control the environmental variables. It is theorized that through this system, optimal growth conditions can be realized in a repeatable and reliable manner.
