Biosphera Project - Media Lab Europe

Biosphera is an enclosed microworld in which children can control environmental parameters such as light, pressure, humidity, temperature, chemical conditions, and populations of microorganisms. A computer interface works with sensors and actuators to affect the physical world of the Biosphera. Through this interplay of perceptual accessibility and virtual representations,
We hopes to stimulate, support, and improve children's interest and understanding of science, ecology, biology, chemistry, and system dynamics.
