  • Remote phytomonitoring
    Publication number: 20040088916
    Abstract: A system for remote monitoring of plants is provided. The system includes (a) at least one sensor positioned on, or in proximity to, a plant, the at least one sensor being for collecting data pertaining to at least one plant related parameter; (b) at least one user client being for receiving and optionally processing the data from the at least one sensor to thereby determine a state of the plant; and (c) a communication network being for communicating the data from the at least one sensor to the at least one user client.
    Type: Application

  • System and method for phytomonitoring
    Publication number: 20020170229
    Abstract: A method of assessing a state of a plant is provided. The method includes: (a) collecting data pertaining to at least one plant related parameter over a predetermined time period; and (b) analyzing the data collected over the predetermined time period to thereby identify a trend in the data over at least a portion of the predetermined time period, the trend being indicative of the state of the plant.

  • System, device and method for estimating evapo-transpiration in plants
    Patent number: 6397162
    Abstract: A system for estimating evapo-transpiration from a plant is provided. The system includes (a) a first detector for detecting environmental radiation at a vicinity of the plant; (b) a second detector for detecting air humidity at a vicinity of the plant; (c) a third detector for detecting air temperature at a vicinity of the plant; (d) a fourth detector for detecting boundary diffusion layer resistance at a vicinity of the plant; and (e) a processor communicating with the first, second third and fourth detectors for retrieving data from the first, second third and fourth detectors and for calculating, based on the data a value corresponding to the evapo-transpiration from the plant.
