Abstract

A dynamic detection device for the growth of a potted crop, includes a detection platform and a rotating shaft. A first cantilever frame is fixed at an upper portion of the rotating shaft; a laser ranging sensor is mounted at a tail end of the first cantilever frame; a second cantilever frame is fixed at a lower portion of the rotating shaft, and a pressure sensor is mounted at a tail end of the second cantilever frame. The detection platform has several bases; weight information crop is collected via a load sensor; stem diameter and plant height information crop is collected via the pressure sensor, a photoelectric encoder and the laser ranging sensor; and growth information crop is described through information fusion, which can improve the efficiency and continuously monitor dynamic change information about the growth of a target crop in a growth process.
