Abstract :
The purpose of this study is to create an automatic growth detection system as a PSE (Problem Solving Environment) for a plant factory. The system takes pictures of plants periodically. Pictures taken are processed to extract edges. The system compares the edges and growth models. According to the measured values, the growth is proportional to time. Moreover, we have predicted the growth by using the L-system simulator. We proposed a PSE system for a plant factory. We use the L-system simulation for the automatic detection of the growth.
