AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing environmental control systems for plant cultivation cannot accurately determine the internodal distance of plants, which is crucial for understanding plant growth state.

Method used

An estimation system that acquires images of plants with changing positions, performs object detection to identify feature points corresponding to plant nodes, tracks the transition of these points across multiple frames, and estimates internodal distances based on their positions.

Benefits of technology

Accurately determines internodal distances, enabling precise monitoring of plant growth state and facilitating efficient environmental control for cultivation.

Abstract

An estimation system includes at least one processor. At least one processor acquires a video showing a plant such that the position of the plant changes, performs object detection on each of the plurality of frames of the video to detect instances corresponding to the plant, identifies the transition of the instance including two or more feature points corresponding to two or more nodes of the plant as an instance history, estimates the position of each of the two or more nodes on the basis of the transition of each of the two or more feature points included in the instance history, and estimates an internodal distance, which is a distance between two nodes, on the basis of the estimated two or more positions.
