Overview
PhytoVerse is an innovative 4D simulation platform that uses virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) to visualize the complex biological processes in plants, fungi and their interactions with the environment in a dynamic, immersive environment.
The use of the fourth dimension - time - makes it possible to visualize growth and development processes in an accelerated form and thus experience long-term changes in real time.
This unique simulation environment opens up new ways for researchers, educators and the public to experience and understand the world through the eyes of plants.
