AI Technical Summary
Existing agricultural monitoring systems suffer from high labor intensity, low measurement frequency, poor data continuity and low accuracy in crop height measurement, lack of stable and reliable scale references, difficulty in adapting to complex farmland environments, weak system integrity, and difficulty in efficiently integrating environmental data and image data.
A cotton canopy intelligent monitoring system was designed, including a main control development board, an environmental data acquisition module, an image acquisition module, and a communication module. By setting multiple mapping scales and combining image acquisition with cloud recognition, a mapping relationship between pixels and actual dimensions is established to realize the automated calculation of cotton plant height.
It has achieved automated and stable measurement of cotton plant height, reduced human error, improved measurement accuracy and system integrity, and can efficiently integrate environmental and image data in complex environments to support cotton field management decisions.
