Hydroponic agriculture and vertical farming hold significant promise for sustainable food production, but accessing training programs for these techniques can be challenging, especially for young students with disabilities. This paper presents an innovative approach to address this issue by developing an augmented reality (AR) application tailored for hydroponic agriculture and vertical farming training. Collaborating with the Association for Cognitive Enhancement (ASPOC), the AR platform aims to provide inclusive and accessible learning experiences for students with disabilities, empowering them to acquire practical skills in agricultural practices. By leveraging AR technology, the system enhances engagement, interactivity, and real-time feedback, thereby fostering a more inclusive educational environment.

Abstract
Hydroponic agriculture and vertical farming hold significant promise for sustainable food production, but accessing training programs for these techniques can be challenging, especially for young students with disabilities. This paper presents an innovative approach to address this issue by developing an augmented reality (AR) application tailored for hydroponic agriculture and vertical farming training. Collaborating with the Association for Cognitive Enhancement (ASPOC), the AR platform aims to provide inclusive and accessible learning experiences for students with disabilities, empowering them to acquire practical skills in agricultural practices. By leveraging AR technology, the system enhances engagement, interactivity, and real-time feedback, thereby fostering a more inclusive educational environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
