CI-203 Portable Laser Area Meter
|
|
The CI-203 Portable Laser Area Meter uses advanced laser technology to allow researchers a precise and convenient way to measure leaf area (or the areas of leaf-like objects). The high-resolution laser scanner, data logger, and display are all enclosed in a single, hand-held unit weighing only 1kg. Non-destructive measurements can be performed on leaves of a living plant by simply pulling a leaf through the instrument, enabling collection of data from the same plant throughout its life span.
Precise leaf area measurements may also be performed on tender leaves. A transparent sheath may be used with delicate leaves. All six measurement parameters (area, width, length, perimeter, shape factor, and aspect ratio) comprise a data set and are compiled at the same time. Over 15,000 data points can be stored and transferred to a computer or printer.
