Plant Physiology -- Spring 2009
 

UNI PlantCam

These images are a test run, with bean seeds sitting on wet towelling.
They don't have much contact with the water, so they don't change fast, but you can see the change on the "movie" file.

For the week of the 18th, they will be covered in wet towelling, then uncovered to take some pictures once or twice a day.
At this time you will take photos of your own seeds with the still camera.

The following week we will have live images of a plant emerging from soil in a pot, so it will be visible all the time.
(Wonderful things, roots.) We will change the images to every 10 minutes, because sometimes thing happen fast.
Instead of taking your own pictures, you will just go to the web and grab the pictures from there.
