ABSTRACT:
A portable Chlorophyll Fluorescence Imaging Time (CFIT) system for use in determining plant health. The system includes an enclosure for placement around a plant to be imaged in-situ. There is a controlled light source that controllably provides to the plant light of a desired wavelength range, to controllably irradiate the plant within the enclosure. The chlorophyll fluorescence emitted from the plant both spatially and temporally is captured, and the captured fluorescence information is analyzed to provide plant health information.
