The 'EcoGarden' is a connected piece of at-home gardening equipment that is designed to give urban consumers a simple, interactive way to keep natural elements within their living space.
The system merges hydroponic techniques with aquaculture to form a symbiotic relationship between the plant life and the fish to ensure that both aspects are kept as healthy as possible with minimal need for intervention on the users behalf. The unit doesn't require any soil and is completely free of chemicals to make it a natural addition to your home or office to infuse natural elements without having to take on too much extra responsibility.
The 'EcoGarden' system is also outfitted with a series of sensors that will provide users with real-time access to data regarding the status of the units functionality to ensure it's always operating optimally.
