Abstract: The processing of an image of a moving plant is inadequate, for this reason, digital video processing must be incorporated, which allows the behavior of an algorithm to be analyzed over time. A method is presented that takes images of a plant with autonomous movement filmed on video; the frames are digitally processed and the information is used to generate animations. Our representation of the structure is derived from an analysis of the image where the plant is deformed; the projections of the movement of the plant are recovered from the video frames and are used as a basis to generate videograms in an animation based on key points taken from an image; Harris and Brisk algorithms are applied. The main plant used is the Mimosa Pudica. Once the frames have been obtained, correlation is proposed as a mechanism to find movement. The techniques are equally useful for any other moving plant such as carnivores or sunflowers.
