Large rectangular Battle Domes appliance with an open top-fill reservoir, overhead camera canopy and vented service base in a tropical kitchen

Battle Domes

A garden that hunts bugs and handles its own care.

Plug it in. Add distilled water.
Let the plants hunt.

Give those little flying nuisances somewhere to land.

A fly circling the kitchen. Gnats drifting past the window. Give them a garden full of predators. Battle Domes brings insect-catching pitchers, sundews and rosettes into your home, turning the insects they catch into food for a lush, living display. Every successful catch is one less flying nuisance sharing your room.

You get the extraordinary plants without having to become a specialist in keeping them. The rectangular glass habitat handles watering, airflow, temperature and humidity; its computer watches the plants and manages their feeding. Set it up, plug it in and keep distilled water in the top reservoir. Then enjoy the new pitchers, unfolding leaves and tiny hunts happening in your own home.

The growing expertise comes built in.

The part you use most is right on top: a clear water tank with a visible level and a wide refill opening. Lift the hinged hatch, pour distilled water into the recessed funnel, and the planter takes over delivery. Above the garden, an equipment canopy houses the cameras, circulation outlets and optional grow lights. Below it, a substantial service base holds the computer, pump, climate hardware and food supply. The broad glass chamber between them gives the plants room to grow—and you a clear view of the whole landscape.

Skip the watering guesswork

You refill one reservoir. Moisture sensors and metered delivery handle the different planting pockets, so you do not have to judge the soil or remember a separate watering schedule for every plant.

Let the planter mind the climate

Temperature, humidity and light sensors guide the habitat’s ventilation, water delivery and climate hardware. The controller tends the growing conditions while you get on with your day.

Put the plants to work

Small passages let insects reach the hunting garden. The internal camera records arrivals, departures and activity at the traps, giving the feeder a picture of what the plants have caught for themselves.

Make room for something worth watching.

The windowsill bay

Turn an ordinary window into a little botanical bay. This version projects its planted chamber beyond the wall, bringing a whole garden into view while leaving your counter free. Clear front, side and roof panes welcome natural daylight. From the kitchen, you can watch the pitchers develop and the sundews unfurl against the world outside.

A fitted window insert closes the space around the enclosure. The structural base seats on the sill, with exterior brackets supporting the projecting chamber. The water reservoir’s fill hatch stays on the room side of the top rail, within reach for pouring. Computer, pump and feeder compartments open inward for service; the projecting roof stays clear for sunlight.

Freestanding daylight

Give a bright window a living centrepiece. The freestanding model sits on a sideboard, putting its broad planted landscape at an easy viewing height. Its clear roof admits sunlight while the controller measures the light reaching the leaves and manages the habitat’s climate.

With its own growing day

Keep a lush, illuminated garden in view through grey days and changing seasons. The lighted model supplies its own growing day with fitted light bars spanning the chamber. Light cycles, temperature, moisture and airflow are managed together, giving temperate-climate homes a way to enjoy the garden through winter.

Each version comes with the plants and their care programme selected together. You choose where the garden belongs in your home; the species, growing pockets, light schedule and feeding routine come as a coordinated whole.

When the house runs out of bugs, dinner still arrives.

A quiet house should be good news. You do not have to find bugs to keep the garden fed: the camera tracks insects coming and going, then checks activity at the traps. Visitor size and observed feeding help it estimate the nutrition the plants have received and what the automatic feeder still needs to supply.

Insects in−Insects out=Net visitors retained

After a month without bugs, the internal feeder supplies a measured meal to the appropriate pitchers or feeding surfaces. The garden can hunt when insects visit and eat from its stored food when they do not. Dinner does not become another job on your list.

Monthly camera reviewBuilding a growth record

Close-ups show how the plants change through the month.

Moisture, temperature and airflow remain under local control throughout the month.

The plants get a check-up. You get on with your day.

You do not have to inspect every leaf to keep an eye on your garden. The computer runs everyday care locally. Once a month, the camera sends close-ups for a cloud-based health review, comparing new leaves, developing pitchers, colour and growth with the previous record.

If the review finds something that needs your attention, you receive a notification identifying the plant and what to do. You get a useful next step without having to diagnose an unfamiliar species yourself. The camera faces the garden, watching the plants as they change.

The everyday appeal is simple: something alive, beautiful and busy in your home, with its routine care already accounted for.

Picture coming across a working Battle Domes display on a trip to the garden centre: pitchers hanging among the leaves, sundews catching the light, a whole planted landscape moving through its own growing day. Look through the glass, lift the refill hatch, and imagine that view beside your sink or on your sideboard. The proposed retail display brings the daylight and lighted models together so you can see how each would fit your home.
