Abstract

The invention discloses a plant root system monitoring system based on a hyperboloidal mirror, which comprises a micro root canal, a hyperboloidal mirror and a digital camera unit, wherein the micro root canal is arranged in a field where a monitored plant grows, the hyperboloidal mirror is arranged inside the micro root canal, and the digital camera unit is arranged inside the micro root canal and positioned above the hyperboloidal mirror and connected with an image acquisition card. In the invention, a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) camera can obtain a 360-degree horizontal field integral image around the reflector through each acquisition, the camera is only controlled to move up and down along the canal wall of the micro root canal without rotating; and in the post-stage image processing, the image can be vertically spliced only. Therefore, according to the technical scheme, the root system image is acquired by adopting the plant root system monitoring system, the complexity of mechanical design and post-stage image processing is reduced, and the image acquiring efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of plant root system monitoring, in particular to a plant root system monitoring system using a hyperboloid mirror for imaging. Background technique [0002] The root is an organ gradually formed by plants to adapt to life on land. It has the functions of absorption, fixation, transport, synthesis, storage and reproduction. Only a well-grown root system can meet the needs of plant growth. Therefore, the study of root growth is of great significance to understand the relationship between the plant's demand for nutrients and water and its environment. Since the root system grows underground, it is not very convenient to measure. Therefore, in situ observation and quantitative determination of plant root growth has always been one of the difficulties in root biology research in the world. At present, foreign companies that produce and observe the growth of root systems mainly include CID, a joint venture company betwe...
