Embodiment 1

[0041] This embodiment provides a plant growth monitoring method, which is suitable for planting monitoring of leafy vegetables in modern farms. The growth monitoring method is executed by a plant growth monitoring device, which is composed of software and / or hardware, including an image sensor and an image processor.

[0042] figure 1 It is a flow chart of the plant growth monitoring method provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the growth monitoring method may further comprise the steps:

[0043] S11, periodically collect images of the plants through an image sensor disposed above the plants.

[0044] The image sensor adopts a general industrial camera, and its main component is a charge coupled device image sensor CCD (Charge Coupled Device), which can adapt to the requirements of industrial complex environments and work stably for a long time.

[0045] The plants are generally leafy vegetables and are planted on a planting frame, ...

Embodiment 2

[0052] This embodiment provides a method for monitoring the growth of plants. As an improvement of the above embodiments, the growth of plants is judged by the leaf area of ​​the plants.

[0053] figure 2 It is a flow chart of the plant growth monitoring method provided by the second embodiment of the present invention. Such as figure 2 Shown, described growth control method comprises the steps:

[0054] S21. Periodically collect plant images through an image sensor disposed above the plants.

[0055] The plants are equidistantly planted on the planting frame, and the images of the plants are periodically collected from above the plants by an image sensor for analysis.

[0056] S22. Divide the plant image into several equal parts, and the number of plants in each equal part is equal.

[0057] image 3 It is a schematic diagram of dividing a plant image into several equal parts provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Such as image 3 As shown, the plant imag...

Embodiment 3

[0066] This embodiment provides a method for monitoring the growth of plants. As an auxiliary judgment of the above embodiments, the growth of the plants can be judged by the color of the leaves of the plants, so as to determine whether the plants are mature or have sufficient nutrition.

[0067] Figure 4 It is a flow chart of the plant growth monitoring method provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. Such as Figure 4 Shown, described growth control method comprises the steps:

[0068] S31. Periodically collect plant images through an image sensor disposed above the plants.

[0069] S32. Divide the plant image into several equal parts, and the number of plants in each equal part is equal.

[0070] S33. Obtain the R value, G value and B value among the RGB values ​​of each pixel of the plant image.

[0071] The RGB value of each pixel is expressed as a three-digit decimal number ranging from 0 to 255, that is, RGB(0,0,0) represents black, and RGB(255,255,255) re...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for monitoring growing situations of plants. The method for monitoring the growing situations comprises the steps that plant images are periodically collected through image sensors arranged above the plants; growing situation information of the plants is extracted from the plant images. The plant images are periodically collected by means of the image sensors arranged above the plants, the growing situation information of the plants is extracted from the plant images, by analyzing the growing situation information, whether the growing situations of the plants meet requirements of growth stages of the plants or not can be known. After collection and analysis every time, whether the growing situations of the plants are normal or not can be known in time, each plant frame is inspected without consuming much labor or time, and labor cost is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant planting, in particular to a plant growth monitoring method and device. Background technique [0002] The use of soilless cultivation to grow organic vegetables has become the mainstream of many greenhouse farms. At present, the growth monitoring of green leafy plants on the planting racks still relies on traditional manual visual inspection and confirmation. Every once in a while, work Personnel will inspect all the planting racks to see if there are slow-growing plants. For the growth of a single plant, real-time images, real-time video for accurate data collection, it is even more difficult to achieve manually. This has also become an obstacle to intelligent planting. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a plant growth monitoring method and device, which can automatically analyze the growth of plants from plant images, facilitate monitoring and...
