Green Growth Tracker

License: MIT

Overview

The Green Growth Tracker is an open-source Android application developed to help users easily track and record the growth of their plants. By leveraging image processing techniques and the OpenCV library, the app provides a convenient way to monitor plant height using a smartphone camera. The goal is to offer users a user-friendly tool for evaluating plant growth, contributing to botanical research, and supporting practical applications.

Features

Automated Measurement:

Utilizes image processing to automatically monitor plant height from photos captured with the smartphone camera.

Object Detection:

Employs a Haar feature-based cascade classifier to detect flowerpots and plants in images, achieving XXX% accuracy.

Manual Edit:

Allows users to manually input known dimensions of flowerpots or reference objects, establishing a scale for accurate height estimation.

Database Integration:

Stores plant-related information such as name, species, pot height, and measurement values using SQLite for easy data management and retrieval.

Installation

To install the Plant Growth Monitor app on your Android device, you can download it from the Google Play Store [link here].

How It Works

Upload Plant Image:

Users upload a picture of the plant along with key information like the plant's name, species, and pot height.

Automated Detection:

The app uses image processing to detect the flowerpot and plant, providing automated results.

User Confirmation:

Users confirm the correct matching of the pot and the accurate identification of the plant. Inconsistencies can be manually corrected.

Data Storage:

Consistent results are saved to the database, ensuring accurate data storage for future reference.

Development Environment

Android Studio Version: 2022.2.1 Libraries Used: SQLiteOpenHelper for database management, OpenCV for image processing.
