Plant Growth MeasurementTechniques Using Near-InfraredImageryAmr Aboelela John BarronDept. of Computer ScienceUniv. of Western OntarioLondon, Ontario, Canada, N6A 5B7barron@csd.uwo.ca Albert LiptayAgriculture and Agri-food CanadaGreenhouse and Processing Crop CentreHarrow, Ontario, Canada, N0R 1G0liptaya@em.agr.caAbstract We examine the usefulness of variousimaging techniques, including optical ow, formeasuring plant growth for corn seedlings andCaster Oil Bean leaves. A near-infrared camera,which allows one to measure optical ow in thelight and in the dark, is used. For corn seedlingswe have already used optical ow to obtain 3Dimage velocity as a measure of growth perfor-mance. We propose two new growth metrics formeasuring growth, one based on elongation ofthe stem/leaf and the other based on the areachange of the stem/leaf. These metrics are ex-amined by measuring the corn seedling growthunder various combinations of root tempera-tures (warm or cold) and under various lightingconditions (light to dark). For caster oil beanleaves we use Horn and Schuncks optical ow al-gorithm to compute the globally consistent oweld for a moving, growing leaf. We use 1st or-der divergence of the ow to hypothesize wheregrowth might be taking place.Keywords: Near-Infrared Imagery, CornSeedling stem/leaf growth, Caster Oil Bean leafGrowth, Optical Flow, Optical Flow Divergence1 IntroductionWe are interested in the measurement of plantgrowth using optical ow. We use a nearinfrared-camera with near-infrared light sources,which allows us to measure optical ow in thelight and in the dark. Infrared light is just abovered light in the visual spectrum and allows usto \see in the dark with a normal black andwhite camera with minor modications. Unlike infrared light, near-infrared light responds onlyminimally to heat. Using a near-infrared cam-era will allow us to measure the growth of cornseedling stems/leafs under various temperatureand lighting conditions. We also examine thegrow
