Implementation of IoT (Internet of Things) and Image processing in smart agriculture

Internet of Things and Image processing have been so far been applied for various applications independently. Their individual application in the field of agriculture exists and has achieved certain degree of success, however the combination of both these technology so far is non-existent. This paper describes an approach to combine IoT and image processing in order to determine the environmental factor or man-made factor (pesticides/fertilizers) which is specifically hindering the growth of the plant. Using an IoT sensing network which takes the readings of the crucial environmental factors and the image of the leaf lattice, it is processed under MATLAB software by the help of histogram analysis to arrive at conclusive results.
