我们提出了一种基于植物的环境显示器，叫做PlanT，它代表着自己成长的信息。利用不同植物类型和生长方式的生长速度差异，plant可视化信息，其特性是随着时间的推移，在几天到几年的中长期范围内逐渐积累。除了可视化的信息，成长本身也可以给人带来积极的影响，可以适用于激励人们朝着一个遥远的目标稳步努力。为了证明我们的概念，我们使用萝卜芽实现了PlanT的原型验证，并表明可以通过控制生长刺激（如水和光）来确定主观生长程度。然后，我们进行了一项用户研究，与使用屏幕表示的基线方法相比，调查我们的系统如何激励用户的连续任务（一周）。结果表明，与基线相比，我们的系统提供了更高的主观动机来执行任务。
We propose a plant-based ambient display called PlanT, which represents information by growing up themselves. Utilizing the difference in growth rate depending on the type of plant and how to grow, PlanT visualizes information with the property of gradually accumulating over time in the medium to long term span of several days to several years. In addition to visualizing information, growing itself can bring positive effects to people, which can be applicable to motivating people’s steady efforts towards a faraway goal. To demonstrate our concept, we implemented a proof-of-prototype of PlanT using radish sprouts and showed the degree of subjective growth can be determined by controlling growth stimuli such as water and light. We then conducted a user study to investigate how our system can motivate the user’s continuous task (for a week) compared with a baseline method using on-screen representation. Results show that our system provided higher subjective motivation to perform the task compared to the baseline.
