Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of plant phenotypic imaging equipment, and more specifically, to a mobile phenotypic information collection platform and method for the entire plant growth cycle. Background Art
[0002] Plant phenotype refers to complex plant traits determined or influenced by genes and environment, including morphological structure and physiological and biochemical parameters of growth, development, tolerance, resistance, physiology, structure, yield, etc. Measurable morphological and structural phenotypic parameters include plant crown width, base diameter, leaf characteristics, branch characteristics, fruit characteristics, etc. Phenotype is a systematic measurement and characterization of the morphological, structural, physical, chemical and biological characteristics of plants from macro to micro.
[0003] In view of the complex phenotypic characteristics of plants, we are required to integrate automated platform equipment and information technology to systematically and efficiently obtain plant phenotypic information, and to collaboratively collect plant phenotypic data through environmental sensors, non-destructive imaging, spectral analysis, machine vision, and lidar. The plant phenotyping platform integrates multiple sensors to analyze genomic information and quantitatively study complex traits related to growth, yield, and adaptation to biotic or abiotic stresses. It is an important way to collect high-dimensional and rich phenotypic data sets for plants, meeting the need to fill the gap between genomic information and plant phenotypic plasticity.
[0004] Currently, the plant phenotyping platforms on the market include greenhouse conveyor plant phenotyping platforms, track-type plant phenotyping platforms, and drone plant phenotyping platforms. The greenhouse conveyor plant phenotyping platform integrates optoelectronic technology, automatic control, and computer graphics processing technology, and can collect greenhouse plant phenotyping parameters. The greenhouse conveyor-type plant phenotyping platform adopts a mode of moving plants and fixed sensors. Potted plants are transported to the imaging darkroom by a conveyor belt, and the sensors collect phenotypic information. However, mechanical vibration will inevitably occur during the conveyor belt transportation, which will cause irreversible damage to the plants and seriously affect the normal development and growth of the plants. The track-type plant phenotyping platform can be equipped with a variety of imaging sensors for fully automatic measurement, and directly scan the plants planted in the field or greenhouse to collect phenotypic information. However, the track-type plant phenotyping platform occupies a large area, has low flexibility, high maintenance costs, and is not easy to adjust the collection position. The drone plant phenotyping platform collects plant phenotypic information through the flight area by carrying imaging sensors, and has good flexibility and expandability. However, the drone's endurance time and load weight greatly limit its use. In addition, when the drone plant phenotyping platform collects plant phenotypic information at low altitude, the rotation of the rotor will generate great turbulence, which will affect the plant canopy structure, thereby reducing the image acquisition quality and making the phenotypic information collection accuracy low.
[0005] Plants are living organisms with special randomness and variability. Their growth and development are affected by various random factors such as genetic genes and external environment. The phenotype of plants is diverse, complex, and dynamically changing. According to the different genetic genes of the father and mother and the different cultivation measures such as irrigation and fertilizer, the daily increase of corn plant height is 3-8 cm, and the daily increase of sorghum plant height is 2.7-3.1 cm. Therefore, for the collection of phenotypic information of different growth stages of the same plant, especially plant height information, it is necessary to achieve height regulation of the whole growth cycle of plants (seedling stage, development stage, maturity stage, etc.). Summary of the invention

According to the judgment result of S12 above, if adjustment is required, the adjustment command is input through the portable computer 1, and the command is transmitted to the height adjustment electric push rod 4. The motor on the height adjustment electric push rod 4 drives a pair of screw nuts after gear reduction, and the nuts are connected to the push rod, so that the rotational motion of the motor is converted into the linear motion of the push rod. The electric push rod movement is completed by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor to adjust the height of the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 from the ground.
[0102] S14. If the height adjustment electric push rod 4 in the above S13 reaches the maximum stroke and still cannot satisfy the requirement that the acquisition target is within the focal length range of the depth camera 14, and the photosensitive components of the depth camera 14 cannot obtain a complete and clear imaging effect, then loosen the nut on the locking bolt 18, and then input the adjustment command through the portable computer 1, and the command is transmitted to the horizontal electric push rod 2 and the rotating motor 11 in the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3. The expansion angle of the mechanical arm 10 in the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 is adjusted by the extension and contraction of the horizontal electric push rod 2, and the angle between the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16 on the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 is adjusted by the rotation of the rotating motor 11, thereby realizing the adjustment of the folding state of the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 to meet the acquisition requirements; the horizontal electric push rod 2 and the rotating motor 11 realize the continuous operation of the motor by keeping the normally open auxiliary point of the running contactor closed, and realize self-locking to maintain the current state.
[0103] S15. The depth camera 14 is switched between the two arms through the tracks on the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16. When switching is required, an adjustment instruction is input through the portable computer 1, and the instruction is transmitted to the rotating motor 11. The angle between the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16 is adjusted by rotating the rotating motor 11 to make the angle 90 degrees. At this time, the mechanical arm track 9 is in contact with the mechanical arm track 15, and the camera connector 13 can slide from the mechanical arm track 9 to the mechanical arm track 15, or can slide from the mechanical arm track 15 to the mechanical arm track 9, so as to realize the switching of the depth camera 14 between different tracks.
[0104] The adjustment of the folding state of the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 specifically includes:
[0105] A1. Horizontal acquisition status: Figure 3 As shown in (a), the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16 in the foldable and telescopic mechanical arm 3 are in a horizontal state.

[0106] A2, variable height acquisition state: Figure 3As shown in (b), the mechanical arm 10 in the foldable telescopic mechanical arm 3 is rotated and adjusted by the horizontal electric push rod 2, and the mechanical arm 16 is rotated and adjusted by the rotating motor 11, thereby meeting the collection height requirements when the plants are in the growth stage and the collection requirements of different scanning modes. The depth camera 14 can switch from the mechanical arm track 9 to the mechanical arm track 15, and the mechanical arm 16 is rotated and adjusted by the rotating motor 11 to collect the plants directly below the mechanical arm 16.
[0107] A3, Ultra-wide-angle acquisition status: Figure 3 As shown in (c), the angle between the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16 in the foldable and telescopic mechanical arm 3 is a right angle. The depth camera 14 takes pictures when it is located at the junction of the mechanical arm 10 and the mechanical arm 16, so that the depth camera 14 is located at a widest angle position, and the depth camera 14 is at the maximum distance from the ground, achieving the maximum collection height and the best collection angle, thereby meeting the collection height requirements when the plants are in the mature stage.
[0108] The switching of the depth camera 14 between different tracks in S15 is specifically as follows:
[0109] A1. The top of the depth camera 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the camera connector 13. The depth camera 14 always keeps its lens parallel to the ground under the action of its own gravity. The top of the camera connector 13 is two rollers 19 each with a micro motor. The movement of the micro motor is controlled by the portable computer 1 to realize that the camera connector 13 drives the depth camera 14 to move on the track, and by keeping the normally open auxiliary point of the running contactor closed, the two micro motors are continuously operated to achieve self-locking to maintain the current state.
[0110] In step 2, the specific steps of using four independent brushless hub motor wheels to drive the self-propelled chassis of the mobile phenotypic information collection platform for the entire plant growth cycle are as follows:
[0111] The four independent brushless hub motor wheels of the S21 self-propelled chassis use high-speed, high-torque, reversible DC motors and are equipped with high-resolution optical encoders for precise positioning, speed measurement, and more advanced calculations. The motor drive server uses a proportional-differential-integral (PID) control system to adjust the pulse width of the motor driver (Pulse Width Modulation, PWM) to smooth the movement of the motor.
[0112] S22. When the self-propelled chassis is turning, the brushless hub motor wheels on the same side move forward at the same speed, and the brushless hub motor wheels on the other side move backward at the same speed, so that the mobile phenotypic information collection platform for the entire plant growth cycle rotates around the center to achieve differential steering, and the minimum rotation radius is 0.
[0113] The step three specifically includes:

[0132] S boundingRect =L f ×H f (7).
[0133] S44, analyzing the top-view depth information image collected by the depth camera 14, and calculating the minimum depth value H min As the distance from the plant top to the depth camera 14, the maximum depth H max As the distance from the bottom of the plant to the depth camera 14, the difference between the maximum and minimum depths is taken as the plant height H tree , and its calculation expression is as follows:
[0134] H tree =H max -H min (8).
[0135] S45, calculating plant phenotypic parameters, wherein the plant phenotypic parameters include plant equivalent crown diameter D d_tree and the ratio of plant equivalent crown diameter to plant height R D / H , the calculation expression is as follows:
[0136] D d_tree =2×sqrt(S convex ) (9);
[0137]
[0138] S46, the top-view depth information image DI obtained by the depth camera 14 is fused with the top-view plant color image CI to obtain a plant three-dimensional point cloud structure with color information, and the number of plant canopy leaves and the angle of plant canopy leaves are obtained through the DBSCAN (Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) clustering algorithm, and the three-dimensional morphology of the plant is intuitively displayed, such as Fig.11 The figure shows the schematic diagram of phenotypic parameters of plants in three-dimensional form.

[0139] The step S46 of fusing the top-view depth information image DI obtained by the depth camera 14 with the top-view plant color image CI to obtain a plant three-dimensional point cloud structure with color information includes:
[0140] A1. Conversion between depth map and point cloud. In the top-view depth information image DI obtained by the depth camera 14, each pixel value represents the distance d from the object to the XY plane of the depth camera 14. The coordinate system point in the depth image is recorded as (u, v), and the point in the world coordinate system is recorded as (x, y, z).

It can divide areas with sufficiently high density into clusters and find clusters of any shape in a noisy spatial database to obtain the number of plant canopy leaves. The leaf point cloud vector after clustering is calculated to obtain the leaf angle of the plant canopy.
