        abstract = {Traditional medicinal knowledge has been preserved for centuries but remains largely inaccessible to the broader public. This paper presents the development and implementation of a mobile application designed to identify and catalog ancestral medicinal plants. Using image recognition, augmented reality, and a curated database of plant properties, the app allows users to scan plants, obtain medicinal information, and learn about their traditional uses. This integration of technology with ancestral knowledge aims to promote cultural preservation, biodiversity awareness, and informed herbal practices.},
