In-Vivo Monitoring for Electrical Expression of Plant Living Parameters by an Impedance Lab System

We present a complete in-lab system to monitor the plant and its surrounding environment. The plant impedance is directly measured in a continuous manner, while, simultaneously surrounding environment parameters known to affect plant status, are monitored. This is done combining a new in-vivo direct measurement of the plant together with an embedded system using available sensor technology and a designated interface for continuous data acquisition. Furthermore, the next versions this system can be deployed as a field monitoring device, with simple adaptations.
