CONTROL NUMBER 1858-3555 DONALD DANFORTH PLANT SCIENCE CENTER PROJECT TITLE: AUGMENTED REALITY GUI FOR BIOENERGY CROP PHENOTYPING AND PRECISION AGRICULTURE THIS PROJECT WILL CREATE A SCALABLE ARCHITECTURE FOR COLLABORATIVE PHENOMICS (SACP). SACP WILL PROVIDE A PLATFORM-AGNOSTIC, OPEN SOURCE, ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE FOR CREATION, ANALYSIS AND SHARING OF PHENOMICS DATASETS, ANALYTICAL PIPELINES AND VISUALIZATION SOFTWARE. SACP WILL INCLUDE A FULL STACK WEB SOLUTION FOR SHARING PUBLIC DATASETS AND OPEN SOURCE CODE SOLVING COMMON “PAIN POINTS” IN PHENOMICS. THIS PROJECT WILL PRODUCE A NOVEL VIRTUAL REALITY (VR) AND AUGMENTED REALITY (AR) GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI) TO TRANSFORM HOW RESEARCHERS INTERACT WITH COMPLEX DATA. FINALLY, WE WILL CREATE PUBLICLY AVAILABLE “BEST IN CLASS” BENCHMARK DATASETS FOR ANALYSIS WITH MACHINE LEARNING (ML) AND DEEP LEARNING (DL) APPROACHES.$3,994,323
