Rhododendron dauricum produces medicinal compounds that are similar to cannabinoids (e.g. CBD). Cannabis plants are exposed to stress to increase their production of cannabinoids. The effect of stress on the production of medicinal compounds in R. dauricum is unknown. R. dauricum has a symbiotic relationship with a fungus, Albatrel/us ovinus, that produces similar medicinal compounds. […]

Knowledge of indoor spatial information is vital to stores, warehouses, industries, and homes alike. It is used to optimize layouts to achieve easier navigation for humans, machines, and autonomous robots. Maps provide limited data about the specific placement of objects in the environment and inferring information about the physical space can be impossible. The objective […]
