Experimentelle Forschung zur Entwicklung eines Multisensor-Messsystems mit Marktreife zur berührungslosen Bestimmung des Wasserversorgungszustands mittels Nahbereichsphotogrammetrie

Experimental research on the development of a multi-sensor measuring system with market maturity for the non-contact determination of water supply status using short-range photogrammetry

The aim of the joint project is to further develop the PLANTSENS multi-sensor measuring system for determining the water supply status of plants into a marketable pre-series model. The measuring system will be tested indoors, outdoors and in combination with various carrier systems (rail, drone, vehicle, watering trolley, stationary) on various crops in order to create documentation for use and application. Furthermore, the design of an optimized housing with a fastening system that is compatible with the various carrier systems is being developed. The innovation lies in the further technical development of the multi-sensor measuring system in order to record the water supply status of plants without the need for soil measurements.
