AI Technical Summary
Existing chlorophyll fluorescence measurement techniques require manual intervention and contact with plants, disrupting the plant and are difficult to perform accurately at different times or states without causing measurement errors.
A method using a scanning chlorophyll fluorescence measuring device that takes non-contact measurements at different areas of a crop, alternating between dark-adapted and light-adapted states, with a light source and optical sensor, and records locations for repeated measurements to ensure accurate comparison.
Enables remote, non-disruptive, and accurate measurement of chlorophyll fluorescence at different times, allowing for precise estimation of plant physiology changes without manual intervention.
