Digital imaging method: The prepared standard solutions are lined Up along with unknown concentration sample and blank. Using a white paper as background, take « photograph of the samples by holding the camera around $0 cm away. The calibration curve will be constructed through the RGB values of analytical response with different concentration of Fe* ions using smartphone app (RGB Tool). In the plotted graph, RGB response varies linearly vs the analyte concentration. In order to get precise analysis, follow the steps given below: Transfer prepared standard solution and unknown solution into different colorimetric test tubes Take image of all test tube solution using smart phone camera Open the image processing app Go to gallery, open the image stored in app and extract RGB values for each image/cone. Process the RGB values (R/G) or (R/B) or (G/B) etc., till to get linear response Plot the calibration curve using RGB linear response vs concentration Find the unknown cone using the calibration curve ‘Table 1: Experimental Data ‘ Data collected from Data collected from smartphone device* : Colorimetric device Bx | Camcany AGealG 6 8 Gs [8/6 (Y-axis) be [ & | 0-197] (4 | el [lee [igo oe 0283 (84 | 149 | U4 |t-S|3jo9ss) a 3 0 36rite6g | St St 1-412 |op08 |e 4 — ou [t4o | +4 jst e jose a a oy | Unknown / ga 6288 Fao (£4 | oF 1480/0688) “"if your solution look Red or blue ergreen fe the corresponding “dees ‘and select RGB data which is linear with conc anal opting cliration raph (Y-axis iy 22 (CSScanned with CamScanner Result: (@.
