Bridle for monitoring perimeter and behavier of plants, fruits... using wireless and mobile devices
Research groups of CSIC and Seville University has developed a low cost (micro)opto-mechanical bridle device for determining and/or monitoring with high precision, during long periods, changes in the size or section of structures with geometry, composition, hardness, dimension and diverse nature. Perimeter changes are used as a control and quality parameter of structures in agriculture (plants growing, trees).
The (Micro)bridle device is manufactured with a flexible and transparent material, such as PDMS or another with similar characteristics. The device consists of a fixation area - where the structure is set to be monitored -, a (micro)cantilever sensor - flexible and mobile - which responds to changes in the structure section and an optical sensor as the signal transduction element. The light intensity collected at the transduction element will change depending on the angle of inclination of the (micro)cantilever, which is proportional to the diameter changes of the structure.
Changes in structures section have been evaluated so far, by simple visual inspection and quantitatively by measuring tapes. All these systems are not very accurate and do not allow real-time monitoring of structure changes.
Furthermore, the use of this device can be extended to other vegetal organism or structures (trees, plants , fruits) or any other type of structure in which is necessary to study size, mechanical properties or physiological variations and its response to physical, chemical or environmental stimuli.
The behavior of plants and fruits can be monitored using wireless/RFID networking via mobile devices.
