A robot for high-throughput measurement of photosynthetic rate in potted plants

Abstract

Plant photosynthesis has always been an important content of botany research. Existing photosynthetic rate measuring devices are difficult to realize high-throughput automatic measurement of photosynthetic rate of a large number of potted samples. Aiming at this phenomenon, the present invention designs a robot for high-throughput measurement of photosynthetic rate of potted plants. The robot mainly includes automatic mobile platform, photosynthetic rate measurement, automatic light adjustment, potted plant recognition, power supply device and other parts. The automatic mobile platform moves to the target potted place autonomously to realize accurate positioning of batches of potted plants and high-throughput pot-by-pot automatic detection. During the detection process, the robot can also automatically identify the position of the plant canopy and adjust the light intensity of the plant canopy, which greatly improves the detection efficiency and accuracy of the photosynthetic rate of potted plants.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of agricultural intelligent detection, and relates to a plant photosynthetic rate detection device, in particular to a high-throughput detection robot for the photosynthetic rate of potted plants, which performs rapid and non-destructive detection of the photosynthetic rate of potted plants. Background technique [0002] The carbon assimilation of plants is mainly completed through photosynthesis, and the study of plant photosynthesis has always been an important direction of botany research. At present, the photosynthetic rate of plants is mostly measured by the gas reference method, that is, the whole or part of the plant is placed in a closed leaf chamber, and the CO2 is measured for a certain period of time. 2 , O 2 、H 2 The changes in the concentration of O and other substances were used to calculate the photosynthetic rate. Existing photosynthetic rate measuring devices mainly include portable and fixed types...

Problems solved by technology

For example, the invention patent "Quick measurement device for photosynthetic rate and transpiration rate of cotton boll leaf system" (Application No.: 201910195243.8) proposes a measurement device with a simple structure and easy portability, but it is mainly suitable for the detection of plant organs and cannot meet the requirements of single plant or Multi-plant population measurement needs

There are also measuring devices and methods that can be used for the photosynthetic rate of group plants. For example, the invention patent "a device for measuring the net photosynthetic rate of a single plant and its measuring method" (application number: 201610979627.5) needs to manually place the plant to be measured In the detection chamber, time-consuming and labor-intensive

Another example is the invention patent "A device and method for measuring the photosynthetic rate of plant populations" (application number: 201710313233.0), the bottom of the device needs to be buried in the soil, it is inconvenient to move, and the cavity is large in size and takes a long time for a single detection. Difficult to achieve high-throughput detection of a large number of samples
