1 INTRAVISION group (Norway) INTRAVISION (Canada) Lumigreen (Norway) INTRAVISION (China) Light Systems Inc Technology Ltd INTRAVISION group started in 2000 research on biological effects of narrow bandwidth light within a range of biological applications: Marine biotechnology, aquaculture, turf grass growth, GMO plants for production of Plant Made Pharmaceuticals and Food production in harsh environments. CESRF space research lab University of Guelph Tunnel of Light Oslo We are a System Integration Company Computer controlled LED light systems for biology Combined with Controlled Environment Ag Tech developed through space research at CESRF, University of Guelph CESRF space research lab University of Guelph Tunnel of Light Oslo 1

2 LEDs a maturing technology: In 2004 we saw a technology leap in light intensity 2004 cost/performance 2014 cost/performance Blue LED 4lm/W Blue LED 40lm/W Maximum 1W 4lm Maximum 3W 110lm 8 CAD for 1 LED 1 CAD for 1 LED LEDs a maturing technology: In 2004 we saw a technology leap in light intensity 2004 cost/performance 2014 cost/performance Blue LED 4lm/W Blue LED 40lm/W Maximum 1W 4lm Maximum 3W 110lm 8 CAD for 1 LED 1 CAD for 1 LED And we are in the middle a new technology leap right now 2

11 The frontier of plant growth.. Controlled Environment Plant Production Technology Molecular farming: Plant Made Pharmaceuticals Food security for extreme environment habitats Space applications Manned space missions Ornamental plants outdoor and indoor Start: EUROSTAR project LUMIGEN, with ORF Genetics Iceland: GMO barley 11

12 R&D tools the LED Star lamp INTICE project; Food for manned mission to Mars Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility University of Guelph 5 times the intensity of the Sun at 500mm distance Computer controllable from 0% 100% intensity Potentially redefining plant production.. Design Your plant!! Control of light intensity and spectrum enables programming development of plant morphology by triggering light receptive hormones in the plant. Design of optimum photoperiods for targeting high yield of specific products. 12

13 Vertical Farm Concept: Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research In cooperation with Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility, University of Guelph FOOD SECURITY PROJECT FOR KUWAIT Prototype developed and installed in Kuwait in Pilot research center being developed for installation late Photo top Right : Salad being grown with three narrow bandwidth light spectrums. Photo bottom Right: Salad produced with different light spectrums. The middle salad on RED light has twice the biomass compared to the others, while the BLUE light salad on the right demonstrates how the secondary metabolism have taken over producing antioxidant pigments. The BLUE light salad had a significantly more bitter taste. 13

14 Double layer production system for ABcann Medicinals Inc. In cooperation with Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility, University of Guelph Strawberry Production Plant, With Robotic Plant handling In cooperation with: Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility, Dr. Mike Dixon Department of Engineering, Dr. Medhat Moussa Vertical column's of strawberries on conveyer system. LED grow light cycle Dark cycle Recirculation of water and nutrition Robotic plant handling and harvest. 200 strawberry plants per m2 footprint 14
