An image reconstruction method adapted to use with a planting bed is provided. The planting bed is constituted by a work platform disposed on a work plane and for supporting a plurality of plants thereon. The image reconstruction method includes steps of: capturing a plurality of images of the work platform from different positions on a monitoring plane to obtain a plurality of image data, wherein the monitoring plane is opposite to the work plane, the monitoring and work planes are parallel to each other in a visible range and have a predetermined distance therebetween; and performing an image stitching algorithm to stitch the image data into a two-dimensional image of the planting bed. A monitoring system of a planting bed is also provided.

An exemplary locomotion analysis method includes steps of: acquiring a depth map including an image of a measured object, filtering out a background image of the depth map according to a depth threshold, finding out the image of the measured object from the residual image of the depth map, calculating three-dimensional (3D) coordinates of the measured object according to the image of the measured object has been found out, recording the 3D coordinates to reconstruct a 3D moving track of the measured object and performing a locomotion analysis of the measured object according to the 3D moving track. Moreover, an exemplary locomotion analysis apparatus applied to the above method also is provided.
