Title:
植物の葉片の成長を測定するための方法およびそれに適した装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5396484
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and an apparatus for measuring the growth of leaf disks. The method comprises the following steps: a) Calibrating the capture system, b) capturing at least 2 images of a leaf disk, c) processing the image data, comprising i) segmenting the leaf disks by threshold segmentation, ii) multiple morphological erosion steps, iii) edge cleaning to remove the edge of the storage vessel, d) 3D reconstruction: generating a disparity map by means of a stereo algorithm, calculating a 3D surface model based on the previously determined calibration parameters from the disparity map, e) smoothing the previously obtained surface model, f) determining the growth rates from the time series of the areas. The apparatus comprises at least one camera, a lighting unit, a translation table in the X/Y plane for the camera and (infrared) lighting, storage vessels for leaf disks, and electronic evaluation and control units.
