Plant Science

LESA’s unique engineered solutions utilize technology-based approaches that allow for scalable crop production with consistent and more predictable outcomes in greenhouse and vertical farm settings. LESA’s primary Plant Science research focuses on creating specific light recipes that increase biomass, nutrition, plant pigmentation, photochemistry, and the other physiological effects plants undergo in controlled environment agriculture. The fundamental research includes lighting automation for photosynthetic organisms; integration of advanced plant-fluorescence sensing techniques; tunable and dynamic LED lighting schemas; the effects of pulsed lighting, and implementation of control algorithms.
