Abstract:
A system comprises a digital camera to capture images of a horticultural area, a device processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions executable by the device processor to capture, using the digital camera, a first digital image of a horticultural area containing an insect trap, isolate a portion of the first digital image using the trap detection parameters, the portion of the first digital image corresponding to the insect trap, perform automated particle detection on the portion of the first digital image according to the insect detection parameters to identify regions of pixels in the portion of the first digital image that have the insect recognition color and that pass filter criteria, determine a cardinality of insects on the first object based on a number of identified regions of pixels, store the cardinality of insects in association with the first digital image and provide the cardinality of insects for display in a graphical user interface.

Claim (Index 17):
The computer program product of  claim 14 , wherein the instructions executable to perform the conditioning on the converted digital image to produce the conditioned digital image comprise instructions executable to:\n perform a first overlay operation on the converted digital image to produce a first overlaid image; perform an analysis on the first overlaid image to determine a maximal difference among pixel color values for the first overlaid image; perform a first threshold pass on the overlaid image to produce a first thresholding result image, wherein the first threshold pass applies a first threshold that is dependent on the maximal difference among pixel color values for the first overlaid image; perform a blur operation to blur clustered regions in the first thresholding result image to produce a blurring result image; and perform a second threshold pass on the blurring result image to produce a second thresholding result image, wherein the second threshold pass applies a second threshold that is dependent on the maximal difference among pixel color values for the first overlaid image.
