This garden tool is a tool designed for the Green Gym, a community space where volunteers garden together weekly. They welcome people who have no basic knowledge about gardening, so the members have to share knowledge during the activities. However, since the members are voluntary, once the members leave the community, they take away their specific knowledge with them.
This AI-enabled garden fork is an attempt to maintain this knowledge chain. The fork can be taught through machine learning and can teach newcomers the lessons learned about how to use it by those who’ve used it before.
