フィールドモニタリングとセンシングガジェットの開発

抄録

Many researches support farmers to collect physiological and environmental data automatically to increase the value of agricultural products. In the research area of a field monitoring, this paper describes agricultural field monitoring works and field sensing gadgets. We have developed field monitoring systems with high definition digital cameras and various types of field sensing gadgets such as a hand framing camera and smartphone based spectrometer. Collected data such as image and sensor values are transferred to cloud services such as Flickr and Twitter from the devices through the Internet. Our system can realize low cost and high quality field monitoring.
