The original "root-revolutionary" research was conducted at Sarah Racine Root Research Laboratory Tel Aviv University, the first and largest laboratory aeroponics in the world. Founded by Professor Waisel 20 years ago, the lab allows scientists to conduct future advance research and creation that benefits humanity and the environment.

Applications commercial research is being developed by Plantware, a company founded in 2002. TAU Plantware and working together researchers found that certain species of trees aeroponically (in the air instead of soil and water) not harden. This developed a new method more and more "soft roots," which could easily turn into trees useful life of structures.

Completing the informal sector Plantware collaboration between the founders and the university, the company director of operations, Yaniv Naftaly, holds a degree in life sciences TAU.

It is even possible that in the near future, all homes will be built with eco-technologies. An engineer by trade, the CEO Plantware Glazer Gordon hopes that the first house prototype will be ready in about a decade. Although the method of "growing your own house" may take years, the result is long-lasting and desirable especially in the emerging field of green architecture.
