The first coating, a broadband anti-reflection (BBAR) layer, is designed to maximize visible and near-infrared transmission. The second coating, an imaging multivariate optical element (IMOE), precisely corrects incident NIR spectra to amplify contrast between diseased and healthy plants. Both coatings, developed using realistic optical constants from materials synthesized in the URNano cleanroom and designed in OptiLayer, contribute to AGR\u2019s goal of minimizing the need for software-based image analysis in detecting crop affliction and preventing disease spread. The characterization of material and optical properties will be conducted on multiple spectrometer devices post data collection.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">System Block Diagram<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" class=\"wp-image-175832\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/systemblockdiagram-1024x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/systemblockdiagram-1024x200.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/systemblockdiagram-300x59.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/systemblockdiagram-768x150.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hajim.rochester.edu\/senior-design-day\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/systemblockdiagram.jpg 1484w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method and Material Characterization<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Physical Vapor Deposition, PVD, is commonly used for fabrication of optical interference coatings for its high reproducibility, nanometer-scale deposition capabilities, and versatility of material and process parameters.

Based on the spectral data provided by the customer, the contrast between populations is insufficient to accurately identify the presence of specific disease. By integrating over camera pixels, there is less data available to distinguish between samples. PCA suggests the contrast filter approach is unable to identify whether a sample has anydisease at all.\u00a0 In the future, AGR will investigate spectral signals from different plants and disease populations. The MATLAB simulations created can be used to design the contrast filter targets for any future dataset.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Acknowledgements and References<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We are incredibly grateful for the guidance of our advisor Dr. Jennifer Kruschwitz, the support of our project stakeholder Francis Pellegrino and the feedback from Dr. Wayne Knox.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Nguyen, Canh, et al. \u201cEarly Detection of Plant Viral Disease Using Hyperspectral Imaging and Deep Learning.\u201d <em>Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)<\/em>, U.S. National Library of Medicine, 22 Jan. 2021, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7866105\/.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Fiola, J.
