Wearable Ecosystem Health Devices

The Gaia Communication System is an innovative wearable device designed to deepen human connection with the environment by translating ecosystem health into tangible, sensory experiences.

Inspired by the sensory systems of insects like ants and bees, the Gaia Communication System uses biomimetic principles to help users perceive environmental changes through haptic feedback and visual cues. It is equipped with advanced sensors that can monitor factors such as plant stress, water quality, air composition, and soil moisture. Real-time data is interpreted as vibrations and seen through LED animations.

The Gaia Communication System is solar-powered and consists of a vest and gloves. For environmentally conscious individuals, urban planners, architects, and policymakers, the device offers a novel way to engage with ecosystems and my promote awareness and actionable insights.
