Abstract
This paper presents a leaf sensor which was designed for stomatal transpiration detection. The sensor consists of a thermocouple, a humidity sensor and a programmed microcontroller. The thermocouple measures temperature difference between the leaf and its surrounding atmosphere while relative humidity of the atmosphere was recorded. The sensor design was verified with the standard tool and the image of stomata captured with a high-gain camera lens. From the experimental results, data collected from the developed sensor indicates the stomatal status. This proves the potentiality of the proposed sensor for stomatal transpiration detection.
