The update on the design process: I wanted something to be fully equipped as displayed in the sketch below. Besides the inner properties I imagined it to be assembled in a multitude of incubators so I thougt about a cellular aggregation. Inspired by a platonic solid, this shape is meant to be replicate infinetely.

Aggregation

Unrolled surface for prototying. Note that, being symmetrical on a diagonal axis, it has also identical faces.

Below the idea of how the incubator will look like. A speaker and ultrasound transducers array will be integrated. A LED system and a camera to monitor the growth evolution.

I quickly tested the power of them with a Britney Spears' song. You can shoot sound at one precise point on a long distance

and what the possibilities are:
