Abstract

Water level measurement is one of the hydraulic study necessities especially in lab researches. In most common methods, waterlevel is directly measured. It is also important to measure reservoirs water level in research related with water depth. There arevarietiesof ways for water level measurement compatible with different situations with some structural or financial disadvantages. For instance ultrasonic sensors are very accurate. However,it is often very costly to purchase these sensors. The purposeof this project is to represent a new method of water level measurement using image processing. For removing some limitations of devices invented previously according to requirements of different experiences, we commenced building an affordable device forwater measurement. The device operation is based on an image processing program written on MATLAB. High Definationwebcam takes pictures needed for image processing from a built in stand connected to a main reservoir.
