Abstract :
Bioprocesses are often long-term experiments and their inspections are not easy. For these, the web cam can be very useful. It can analyze to continuous image data using webcam. For example, the height of the tank, or the growth of the organisms, the progress of the reaction. Specified pixel data show that red, green, blue, 16bit gray scale data and graph. It can analyze the result more easily and cheaply. In this paper, we describe our experiments with image analysis and applications.
