Plant canopy structure analyzer

CI-110 Plant Canopy Image Analyzer CI-110 Fisheye Image Measurement Probe CI-110 Plant Canopy Image Analyzer consists of a fisheye image capture probe, a PAR probe, a laptop computer, and CI-110 image analysis software. The fisheye probe or PAR probe is installed at the top of a lightweight handle, which can capture fisheye images or PAR values from a 180 ° perspective. The display and storage of fisheye images or PAR values are completed by a laptop computer. When placing the fisheye probe under the plant canopy, you can see dynamic high-precision black and white fisheye images of the plant canopy on the computer screen. Simply click on the 'Get' icon to obtain the image. The application of CI-110 operating software can calculate parameters such as leaf area index, average leaf inclination angle, scattered radiation transmittance, direct radiation transmittance, extinction coefficient, and leaf orientation distribution of plant canopy. The calculation results are directly displayed on the computer screen or can be conveniently saved in the form of text files on the computer. Placing the PAR probe at different positions inside and outside the plant canopy can measure the PAR values at each location. Features: The measurement method is extremely simple, and the probe can automatically level. High resolution fisheye image with a 150 ° wide viewing angle. Non destructive measurement of leaf area index (LAI), mean leaf inclination angle (MFLA), and scattered radiation transmittance. The direct radiative transmittance and extinction coefficient of solar rays passing through the canopy at different heights can be calculated by selecting the zenith angle division (ring) by the user. • The distribution of blades in different directions can be measured by dividing them into user selected azimuth angles. Directly connecting to a laptop via USB interface enables fast measurement and calculation of plant canopy images, and can also store a large amount of images (via hard drive or floppy disk). • Can directly measure photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) at different positions inside and outside the plant canopy.
