MEASUREMENTS

​

N-IR web camara, captured the following top images of leaves performing photosynthesis, under varied ranges of CO2.

​

The N-IR  web camara, is a DIY tool, developed with the help of Public Laboratories, in order to capture Near infrared movies / images, that depict how healthy plants are, acording to how much photosyntesis they perform.

Plants process RGB light when performing photosyntesis, and bounce the infrared one, therefore, the brighter the infrared light is, the more photosynthesis is happening.

​

For measuring plants, we defined two colors to set the limits of the range:

RED: Less photosynthesis
BLUE- More photosynthesis
