Title: Device and method for detecting a plant
Inventor: SCHMITT PETER
IPC: G01S17/00
Filed: 2010-05-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for recording a plant, con-taining a two-dimensional camera (10a) for recording a two-dimensional image of a plant leaf at a high two-dimensional resolution and a three-di-mensional camera (10b) for recording a three-dimensional image of the plant leaf at a high three-dimensional resolution. The two-dimensional ca-mera is, for example, a common high-resolution color camera, and the three-dimensional camera is, for example, a TOF camera. A processor (12) for combining the two-dimensional image and the three-dimensional image produces a three-dimensional representation of results at a higher resolution than the three-dimensional image of the 3-D camera, which re-presentation can comprise, among other things, the edge of a leaf. The three-dimensional representation of results is used to characterize a plant leaf, for example, to calculate the area of the leaf or the orientation of the leaf, or to identify the leaf.
