Plants that shine in various colors developed, could make Avatar-styled lighting system
SMRTR summary
Scientists have created glowing succulents that recharge in sunlight, emitting various colors after injection with light-emitting compounds. The plants use micron-sized afterglow particles that spread through the succulent's compact microstructure, creating uniform multicolor luminescence bright enough to read by. This technology could potentially replace traditional lighting in pathways and gardens, moving us closer to sustainable plant-based illumination systems like those seen in Avatar.
