REAL-TIME ASSESSMENT OF PLANT PHOTOSYNTHETIC PIGMENT CONTENTS USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN A MOBILE APPLICATION
Accurate and efficient assessment of plant photosynthetic pigment contents is crucial for monitoring plant health, growth, and stress responses. Traditional methods for pigment analysis require time-consuming laboratory procedures and specialized equipment, limiting their practicality for real-time monitoring in the field. In this study, we present a novel approach that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) techniques within a mobile application for real-time assessment of plant photosynthetic pigment contents. The application integrates image analysis algorithms based on deep learning models to analyze plant leaf images captured by a mobile device's camera. The AI model accurately identifies and quantifies various photosynthetic pigments, including chlorophylls and carotenoids, providing instant information about plant physiological status. Experimental evaluations demonstrated the application's robustness and accuracy in estimating pigment contents across different plant species and growth stages. This mobile-based AI approach offers a convenient and rapid tool for on-site monitoring of plant health and can facilitate precision agriculture practices.
