Living plant controls a machete through an industrial robot arm

This installation enables a live plant to control a machete. plant machete has a control system that reads and utilizes the electrical noises found in a live philodendron. The system uses an open source micro-controller connected to the plant to read varying resistance signals across the plant’s leaves.
Using custom software, these signals are mapped in real-time to the movements of the joints of the industrial robot holding a machete. In this way, the movements of the machete are determined based on input from the plant.
Essentially the plant is the brain of the robot controlling the machete determining how it swings, jabs, slices and interacts in space.

I immediately thought it would make a great short story by Philip K. Dick.

Well at least we deviated from the normal "how do we frick it" now it's how can we weaponize it?
Gonna have to battle some solar powered fern ninjas on the way to the stand in the morning

I need about four of those for my front porch this weekend. The JW's are always canvassing the neighborhood when I'm trying to watch football. I think this would put an end to that.
