SunFlower is a large-scale robotic flower whose petals are made of solar panels. These generate the electricity needed during the day to power the flower’s operations as a weather station and for lighting at night. The flower monitors environmental conditions of its surroundings: air pollution, UV radiation, temperature and other variables. In addition, three cameras capture the surrounding landscape, the sunrise and sun. Sunflower, Sentinel of Climate Change, invites us to be witnesses of the changes that are occurring.
