The Scanning Plant Phenotype Platform performs plant phenotyping measurements, including 3D laser, hyperspectral imaging, photosynthetic phenotyping, visible light imaging, and thermal imaging, which are suitable for measurements in the laboratory. The automated system can be customized according to plant size and number to increase throughput while controlling costs, and Lifeasible can customize and develop plant phenotype scanning services according to customer needs.

Depending on the type of sensor on board, the system can realize diversified phenotypic measurement functions. For example, it can measure the three-dimensional structure of plants by 3D laser, the vegetative index, components, and pathology of plants by hyperspectral, the photosynthetic physiology, pigment content, and morphological structure of plants by photosynthetic phenotypic imaging, the two-dimensional morphology and structure analysis by visible light imaging, and the study of drought stress by thermal imaging.
Functional Characteristics
Lifeasible's Scanning Plant Phenotype Platform allows customers to obtain plant morphological and structural information, including plant height, leaf area, etc. These data can be used to study plant growth and development, leaf characteristics, pest, and disease monitoring. The following are the plant-related information services that can be accessed by the platform.
The Plant Phenotype Scanning Platform can capture the external morphological features of plants, such as plant height, leaf shape, leaf area, and so on. By measuring and analyzing these features, the plant's growth status, development level, and adaptability to the environment can be assessed.
By continuously scanning the plant, the Plant Phenotype Scanning Platform can capture changes in the plant's growth process. It can provide information such as plant growth rate, growth curve, and growth stage to help researchers understand the development process and growth pattern of plants.
The Plant Phenotype Scanning Platform can provide detailed characterization of plant leaves, such as leaf color, texture, and leaf vein distribution. These features can be used to study the leaf structure and function of plants and the effect of leaves on photosynthesis and transpiration.
The plant phenotype scanning platform can help detect pest and disease conditions on plants. By analyzing plant images, disease symptoms or signs of pest presence can be identified, providing a basis for timely measures to control them.
The Plant Phenotype Scanning Platform can assess the resistance performance of plants by comparing and analyzing their phenotypic data under different environmental conditions. By observing and analyzing the phenotypic changes of plants under adverse conditions, we can understand the response mechanism of plants to drought, pests, and other stresses.
